I think this was discussed on the list during the last development
cycle. Please check the list archive.
"git config --help" has this to say about it:
* `upstream` - push the current branch back to the branch whose
changes are usually integrated into the current branch (which is
called `@{upstream}`). This mode only makes sense if you are
pushing to the same repository you would normally pull from
(i.e. central workflow).
* `simple` - in centralized workflow, work like `upstream` with an
added safety to refuse to push if the upstream branch's name is
different from the local one.
When pushing to a remote that is different from the remote you normally
pull from, work as `current`.
