No one talked about changing it silently. Quoting myself: | it needs to be done with a sane migration path, however There is already a configuration variable, so it's easy to fix a default value change if you rely on it, but the first thing to do is to encourage people to explicitely set push.default, so that they are not affected by a potential future default change. -- Matthieu Moy http://www-verimag.imag.fr/~moy/
