I just spent hours breaking my head thinking about why you said my
patch cannot possibly "work".  I give up.

The artificial limitation was introduced by you in 135dade, and here's
the relevant part of the commit message:

  - The current branch does have its remote and upstream branch configured,
    but the user said "git push $there", where $there is not the remote
    named by "branch.$name.remote".  By definition, no branch at repository
    $there is set to integrate with the current branch in this case, and
    this push is not meant to update any branch at the remote repository
    $there.

What definition is this, and why does it only apply to
upstream/simple?  Did you implicitly assume that upstream/simple are
only meant to be used in centralized workflows?

Thanks.

  t/push-default: remove redundant test_config lines
  push: make upstream, simple work with pushdefault
  t/push-default: generalize test_push_{success, commit}
