I agree with Jeremy that the default is dangerous, or at the very least
surprising.
Perhaps --force should be changed to require an explicit ref if
push.default = matching (and the code finds that it needs to use
push.default's value)?
By itself that change would make it impossible to use --force to
force-change all matching refs (i.e. the current default behaviour would
disappear completely). I'm OK with that, personally.
