"git remote show <remote>" shows wrong information about not yet configured for 'git push' local ref.
steps to reproduce:
$ git init
$ git remote add origin https://github.com/git/git # for example
$ git pull origin master
$ git remote show origin
...
Local ref configured for 'git push':
master pushes to master (up to date)
$but the local branch "master" is not yet configured to push to remote "master": 1. there is no section '[branch "master"]' (with required content) in the .git/config 2. attempt to push results in error (and that's right): $ git push fatal: The current branch master has no upstream branch.
