should happen upon such a push by setting the configuration variable
receive.denyDeleteCurrent in the receiving repository.
-When the user does not tell "git push" what to push, it has always
-pushed matching refs. For some people it is unexpected, and a new
-configuration variable push.default has been introduced to allow
-changing a different default behaviour. To advertise the new feature,
