True, but isn't that a slipperly slope to cram more and more of the
material from the manual into the "hint" that is supposed to be
short, helpful and not so obnoxious?  Perhaps removing "pull again
before you push", and saying "updates were rejected because X; see
the note about fast-forwards in the manual" and nothing else would
be an improvement?

Thanks.
