Hmph, shouldn't this be done conditionally, though?  Most new users
follow the recommended pattern to set branch.<name>.merge so that
"git pull" would do the right thing for them, I presume, even when
they are using triangular workflow to push to a different remote
than the remote they pull from, so the new and more verbose message
would not help the users any more than the existing message, right?

Can the code tell the situation where the extra part of the message
would help and give it only then?
