For example, I track "git://git.kernel.org/.../git.git" and "192.168.0.128:gits/git.git". Something very similar applies to the host name: if you track multiple Linux repos, chances are that most of them are on git.kernel.org. I guess _if_ you have more than one upstream you are tracking (which is not the most common case, but hey, git-remote is for exactly that case) it is not uncommon to have similar urls. IMHO Junio's proposal is as good as it gets.
I was talking about the default name, so you could do: $ git clone\ git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git $ cd linux-2.6 $ git remote add \ git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jgarzik/libata-2.6.git $ git remote show libata-2.6 Santi - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
