(fa23348 did this:
--- a/Documentation/config.txt
+++ b/Documentation/config.txt
@@ -1749,7 +1749,8 @@ push.default::
   +

-* `upstream` - push the current branch to its upstream branch.
+* `upstream` - push the current branch to its upstream branch
+  (`tracking` is a deprecated synonym for this).
