I have to say that I slowly grow an antipathy for "git push" without 
parameters.  _All_ of the confusions with push that I saw stem from being 
too lazy to say where and what you want to push.  (Okay, there is this 
other thing where people say "git push origin master:master" and I still 
do not know where they got _that_ from.)

I would _never_ teach people to be sloppy here.  Even if you introduce 
whatever appears convenient to you.  IMHO this is not only giving rope, 
but close to putting the noose around the neck.
