There was thread about storing somewhere default branch we merge to during
pull, instead of using always surrent one. Different schemes were proposed,
most of them depending on the remotes configuration being available [also]
in config file.

Perhaps it would be easiest to extend existing notation in the following
way: 
  <from>:<to>[:<merge>]

By the way: it would be nice to have command/script to trasform freely
between 'remotes/' and config file.


P.S. I wonder if it would be difficult to implement 'include <file>' for
config file...
