should happen upon such a push by setting the configuration variable
receive.denyDeleteCurrent in the receiving repository.
+In a future release, the default of "git push" without further
+arguments might be changed. Currently, it will push all matching
+refspecs to the current remote. A configuration variable push.default
+has been introduced to select the default behaviour. To ease the
+transition, a big warning is issued if this is not configured and a
