I assume that everybody, including the maintainer who is too heavyweight and has too much inertia to accept too sudden a change of the course, wants to eventually make the default to deny pushing to the current branch. But I think such a change should come at 1.7.0 release at the earliest, and a constructive thing to do is to put in a patch to 1.6.2 that helps the users with the eventual transition.
I am not opposed to eventually change the default to refuse at some point, but I have to say that now would not be the best time to do so. Jeff's 986e823 (receive-pack: detect push to current branch of non-bare repo, 2008-11-08) that is v1.6.1-rc1~59^2 was the one we started warning about this, and we only had one major release since then, and I'd love to see a solid rc or even the final release by mid February. By the way, I do not appreciate other people who I have never met speculate about my body mass very much. I am on the skinner end of the spectrum, if you need to know.
