+merge.defaultToUpstream::
+ If merge is called without any commit argument, merge the upstream
+ branches configured for the current branch by using their last
+ observed values stored in their remote tracking branches.
+ The values of the `branch.<current branch>.merge` that name the
+ branches at the remote named by `branch.<current branch>.remote`
+ are consulted, and then they are mapped via `remote.<remote>.fetch`
+ to their corresponding remote tracking branches, and the tips of
+ these tracking branches are merged.
