And while we're dreaming: it would be nice to discern between "push
upstreams" and "base upstreams". Example: when I work on the
`fix-t5516-flakiness` branch, I target `upstream/master`, but I push to
`dscho`, i.e. my "push upstream" is `dscho/fix-t5516-flakiness`.

Ciao,

Yep, the triangular workflow of 'publish' v 'upstream' v 'local' is 
quite tricky. There is little user facing docs for that.

Many of my branches have the wrong "upstream" in the sense that it's the 
push-publish remote that holds copies of my work (i.e. I manually select 
the push-remote every time;-), even though the branches are set to track 
the original start point's upstream.
