Change an example push added in b55e677522 ("push: introduce new push.default mode "simple"", 2012-04-24) to always mean the same thing whether the current setting happens to be "simple" or not. This error is only emitted under "simple", but message is explaining to the user that they can get two sorts of different behaviors by these two invocations. Let's use "git push <remote> HEAD" which always means push the current branch name to that remote, instead of "git push <remote> <current-branch-name>" which will do that under "simple", but is not guaranteed to do under "upstream".
