OK. Then I think we shouldn't switch to upstream, and I'm ready to
debate it. :) I already posted my arguments earlier in the thread[1].
What do you think?

I think we can deal with my first issue (some workflows will cause "git
push" to error out without doing anything) with targeted advice for each
situation.  But I still worry about the "implied merge" concern I
raised, and I think the only way to fix that is to have a new mode that
is almost but not quite "upstream" (like the upstream-current hybrid I
mentioned).

Has somebody volunteered to make the necessary fixes to "push.default =
upstream" in the first place? At the very least we need the fixes you
mentioned in your mail[2] before it can become the default. So maybe
doing those is a good first step (of course we are in release freeze,
and it would be nice to settle this before v1.7.10 ships, so maybe there
is not time).
