push: enhance unspecified push default warning
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
When the unset push.default warning message is displayed this may be
the first time many users encounter push.default.

Explain in the warning message in a compact manner what push.default
is and what the change means to the end-user to help the users decide.
