Any default is going to leave some people unhappy. If upstream is the
right thing for you, then that's what you should use. Most questions I
see about push not doing what the users expect would actually benefit
from 'current'. 'matching' is a fairly safe default, as it won't try to
push private branches or changes in private branches that track
something upstream.
