Good catch. I have push.default=upstream (essentially for compatibility
with old Git versions, I'd prefer simple actually).

Not sure actually. If a user says "push.default=upstream", it seems
weird to push to something other than upstream indeed. What's clear to
me is that your patch in its current form clearly makes "simple" a much
better default than "upstream" (good news, it it the default!).

That said, the advice given by "git status" is clearly wrong:

It should say (use "git push origin new" to publish your local commits)
with push.default=upstream and the current behavior of the patch.

Perhaps argumentless "git push" could warn when push.default=upstream
and branch.<name>.publish is configured, I'm not sure.

Sorry, more questions and "I'm not sure" than actual suggestion :-(.
