Hmph, it seems it talks about the branch on the remote side that is configured for the current branch to integrate with. Most likely that is misspelt "branch.<name>.merge" where <name> is the name of the branch currently checked out. The text comes from b2ed944a (push: switch default from "matching" to "simple", 2013-01-04); I am a bit surprised how such a typo survived this long ;-)
