I am avoiding to say "you should use simple/current".  Choice
between matching and simple/current is for the user to make (mostly
dictated by the project's workflow) and we cannot make a suggestion
better than what user knows.

Choice between simple and current is mechanically derivable. If the
user also uses older version of git, simple is not an option.
