I think Documentation/urls.txt would be a good candidate. Currently it talks only about non-nicknamed remotes, and is included only in clone and remote. This makes sense as their usage of urls.txt documentation is to talk about non-nicknamed forms only (obviously clone cannot talk about nicknames in a local repository that does not yet exist, and "remote add" needs a non-nicknamed form as well). Documentation/urls.txt can be enhanced to say that once you have the remote.*.url and other configs, you can use its nickname to name a remote repository. Then it would become a good enough shape to be included in push/fetch/pull pages as well. - 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
