DEFAULT BEHAVIOUR section of

    http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/git-pull.html 

would be the place to start.  Recent git-clone (post 1.5.0, I think)
prepares the following configuration variables for you by default:

        remote.origin.url
        remote.origin.fetch
	branch.master.remote
        branch.master.merge

but repositories created by older git-clone didn't.
