It feels unexpected to see "I may have said while on this branch I
push there and on that branch I push somewhere else, but no, with
this single configuration I'm invalidating all these previous
statements, and all pushes go to this new place".
Shouldn't the default be the default that is to be overridden by
other configuration that is more specific? That is, "I would
normally push to this remote and unless I say otherwise that is all
I have to say, but for this particular branch, I push to somehwere
else".

Why is this no longer needed?
All the remainder of this function is about "remote.*" config and
this rejects other keys, like "user.name", etc.
I'm a bit confused....
