I do this, too. I don't think Magit helps much, in fact I'd be better
off writing functions for `emacs-startup-hook' and `kill-emacs-hook'
that do my pushes and pulls for me.

But for now, I just try to remember to commit and push before I leave a
machine.

This way, you also really learn to appreciate using "git fetch" and "git
status", rather than doing a blind "git pull".
