I didn't expect a "Helped-by", all I did was to give some random

The "git interpret-trailers --parse" thread nearby is adding some
options without mentioning them in the synopsis [1], and those options
can actually be useful, whereas "--set-upstream" only results in a fatal
error. So I don't know.

I think it's ok. Of course, I know exactly what you want to say, and
why, so I'm biased. :-)
