OK, I figured it out. My patch calls:

  remote_get("origin")

which creates an origin remote, even if one does not exist (it assumes
it to be a URL "origin"). Later, when we want to decide if the push is
triangular or not, we ask for:

  remote_get(NULL);

which will internally look for a remote called "origin". Before my patch
there was not such a remote, and so the push could not be triangular.
After my patch, it finds the bogus remote and says "this thing exists,
and is not what we are pushing to; therefore the push is triangular".

The solution is that I should not be passing the term "origin" to
remote_get, but rather passing NULL and relying on it to figure out the
default remote correctly. I.e.:

diff --git a/remote.c b/remote.c
index 8724388..d214fa2 100644
