Bug Description

Easiest to explain with examples:

https://code.launchpad.net/unity currently says for me:

Get this repository:
    git clone https://git.launchpad.net/unity
    git clone git+ssh://<email address hidden>/unity

Update this repository:
    git push git+ssh://<email address hidden>/unity

Expected behaviour:

Also show:

   git push git+ssh://<email address hidden>/~racb/unity

as a location I can push to in order to file an MP against it.

Similarly, https://code.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity says:

Get this repository:
    git clone https://git.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity
    git clone git+ssh://<email address hidden>/ubuntu/+source/unity

Update this repository:
    git push git+ssh://<email address hidden>/ubuntu/+source/unity

Expected behaviour:

Also show:

    git push git+ssh:///<email address hidden>/~racb/ubuntu/+source/unity

Perhaps these should be under a title of something like "Push to a personal clone repository suitable for submitting a merge proposal against" but with better English.

Presumably every form in https://help.launchpad.net/Code/Git#Repository_URLs needs consideration for coverage.

Rationale: new contributors evidently find it difficult to figure out where to push. Hopefully this will help.

I know of 3 different cases already where people have pushed to the wrong url and were not able to create MPs later on for their fixes. Launchpad would just say something along the lines of what you are proposing cannot be proposed for a merge, with no further info.
