git push doesn't update the status with multiple remotes?

Question

I'm using git 1.9.1 in Ubuntu 14.04.

I have a repository on github, a clone on my desktop and bare repo on a private server, in my desktop the remotes looks like this

all git@github.com:user/repo.git (fetch)
all git@github.com:user/repo.git (push)
all user@server.com:user/repo.git (push)
server user@server.com:user/repo.git (fetch)
server user@server.com:user/repo.git (push)
origin git@github.com:user/repo.git (fetch)
origin git@github.com:user/repo.git (push)

If I commit to master in my desktop and run 'git push all master', the github and the server repos are correctly updated, but if I run 'git status' the message says:

Your branch is ahead of 'origin/master' by 1 commit.
 (use "git push" to publish your local commits)

The message won't update unless I run git fetch or git push origin master. I'd expect the git status to give me a updated status message after calling 'git push all master'.

Your branch is ahead of 'origin/master' by 1 commit.
(use "git push" to publish your local commits)

But "all" and "origin" are different remotes. Just because you use the same URL does not make them the same remote repository from the view of your local repository.

(Additionally, "all" is not a special name, just in case you had expected that.)

The message won't update unless I run git fetch or git push origin master.

Yes, that's how it is supposed to work.

I think there is some way to configure that a single push command pushes to several remote repositories, but I can't find it right now...
