Git: which is the default configured remote for branch?

I have a remote bare repository hub. I work only in the master branch.
The last sentence of this error message below makes me wonder: How do I find out which is the “default configured remote for your current branch”? And how do I set it?

[myserver]~/progs $ git remote -v
hub     ~/sitehub/progs.git/ (fetch)
hub     ~/sitehub/progs.git/ (push)

[myserver]~/progs $ git branch -r
  hub/master

[myserver]~/progs $ cat .git/HEAD
ref: refs/heads/master

[myserver]~/progs $ git pull hub
You asked to pull from the remote 'hub', but did not specify
a branch. Because this is not the default configured remote
for your current branch, you must specify a branch on the command line.
