Bug Description

If there is a default stacked-on branch:
$ bzr push bzr+ssh://bazaar.launchpad.net/~jml/testtools
bzr: ERROR: At bzr+ssh://bazaar.launchpad.net/~jml/testtools you have a valid .bzr control directory, but not a branch or repository. This is an unsupported configuration. Please move the target directory out of the way and try again.
HPSS calls: 7 <bzrlib.smart.medium.SmartSSHClientMedium object at 0x30ffbd0>

Or if there is no default stacked-on branch:
$ bzr push bzr+ssh://bazaar.launchpad.net/~jml/launchpad-bazaar
bzr: ERROR: Permission denied: "/~jml/launchpad-bazaar": : Cannot create branch at '/~jml/launchpad-bazaar'

Ideally, Launchpad would provide an error message that directs the user to push to ~USER/PROJECT/BRANCH
