I don't really think this has much to do with the other. git branch
--will-track still means one needs to know it at branch setup time, and git
pull --remember still means one needs to type way more stuff than with a simple
push --track.

But well, given the discussion here I see the feature is essentially rejected,
and already was rejected a previous time. Will probably forget about this and
make a shell script that does for ME what I want.

Best regards,
