This seems OK to me from a refs perspective.

The macro trick is surprising. I guess it gets you a compile-time check,
under the assumption that nothing else is called `the_repository`. But
why actually commit the macro, as opposed to compiling once locally to
check for correctness, then maybe add something like `assert(r ==
the_repository)` for the actual commit?

But I don't care either way, since the macro disappears again soon.
