Once those patches are merged, then I will probably send the one to
change the behavior.

I will include you in the Cc list when I do so.

Thank you very much.

In my experience you need to convince either Junio Hamano, or Jeff King
for any change in behavior to happen, and until they do comment on this
one it's fair to say it won't happen.

I assume they are on this mailing list?

I'd say it should be quite an argument if the related StackOverflow question dealing with this exact issue is one of the top-voted git questions of all time. [1]

It seems that millions of developers (judging by the number of views of that question) wonder what they need to do so that "git pull and git push will work immediately" on a newly created local branch.

If that would "just work" out of the box and with the default settings of git, without having to read up the solution in StackOverflow first, then it would certainly be an improvement for a huge number of people. So, to all whom it may concern, I think a behavioral change is advisable here.

Thank you.
