A common scenario is to create a new branch and push it (checkout -b && push [--set-upstream]). In this case, the user was getting "The current branch %s has no upstream branch.", which doesn't help much. Provide the user a command to push the current branch. To avoid the situation in the future, suggest --set-upstream.
