Not sure I understand what the problem is. Let's say we have two
branches: "master", and "side" with remote.pushdefault = ram,
branch.*.remote = origin, and branch.side.pushremote = peff. Now, when
I query master's pushremote, I get "ram" and when I query side's
pushremote, I get "peff"; all the logic for falling-back from
branch.*.pushremote to remote.pushdefault to branch.*.remote is in
branch_get(), so I need to do nothing extra on the caller-side. From
the caller's perspective, why does it matter if the pushremote of a
particular branch is due to branch.*.pushremote or remote.pushdefault?
