Oh, I see.  I would've expected scripts to specify the refspec
explicitly, instead of relying on a default like this.  Then again, I
saw jc/push-2.0-default-to-simple -- massive changes to scripts in our
own testsuite.

This whole "backward compatibility" thing is not black-or-white: it's
shades of gray.  Can I ask about how "backward incompatible" the other
suggestions I listed were, just so I get a rough idea of your scale?
Junio seems to be very extremist today.
