Hmmm. Maybe something like this? Note to reviewers: This is necessarily
based on ct/advise-push-default.
Assuming this logic is sound and the patch is a reasonable change, I'm not
wedded to "pushNonFFCurrentUntracked" and "pushNonFFCurrentTracked". I'm
concerned both config options are a bit too long. Is there a better, more
concise way to specify those config options?

Suppose a user configured a local branch to track an upstream branch by
a different name or didn't set an upstream branch at all. In these
cases, issuing 'git pull' without specifying a remote repository or
refspec can be dangerous. In the first case, 'git pull --rebase' could
rewrite published history. In the second, 'git pull' without argument
will fail.
Modify 'git push's non-fast-forward advice to account for these cases.
Instruct users who push a non-fast-forward update to their current
branch to 'git pull <repository> <refspec>' when the branch is untracked
or tracks to a different repo or refspec then the one they specified.
Otherwise, instruct users to 'git pull'. Make both types of advice
configurable, so that users who disable one won't disable the other on
accident. Finally, offer users who configure a branch for octopus
merges, i.e. where 'branch->merge_nr > 1', the simple 'git pull' advice.
