But it's hard to forget about it when the 'git pull' error
message that begins with "You asked me to pull without ..."
mentions these specifically:
branch.${curr_branch}.remote = <nickname>"
branch.${curr_branch}.merge = <remote-ref>"
remote.<nickname>.url = <url>"
remote.<nickname>.fetch = <refspec>"
It seems to me it would be much more helpful if that message
gave some sample git config command lines rather than the
resulting "scripting-only" names.
