From: "Greg Jacobson" <coder5000@xxxxxxxxx>
When the unset push.default warning message is displayed
this may be the first time many users encounter push.default.
Modified the warning message to explain in a compact
manner what push.default is and why it is being changed in
Git 2.0. Also provided additional information to help users
decide if this change will affect their workflow.
