Since git-clone is one of the many commands taking URLs to remote repositories as an argument, it should include the URL-types list from urls.txt. Split up urls.txt into urls.txt and urls-remotes.txt. The latter should be used by anything besides git-clone where a discussion of using .git/config and .git/remotes/ to name URLs just doesn't make as much sense.

REMOTES
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
In addition to the above, as a short-hand, the name of a
|
|
file in `$GIT_DIR/remotes` directory can be given; the
|
|
named file should be in the following format:
|
|
|
|
------------
|
|
URL: one of the above URL format
|
|
Push: <refspec>
|
|
Pull: <refspec>
|
|
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
Then such a short-hand is specified in place of
|
|
<repository> without <refspec> parameters on the command
|
|
line, <refspec> specified on `Push:` lines or `Pull:`
|
|
lines are used for `git-push` and `git-fetch`/`git-pull`,
|
|
respectively. Multiple `Push:` and `Pull:` lines may
|
|
be specified for additional branch mappings.
|
|
|
|
Or, equivalently, in the `$GIT_DIR/config` (note the use
|
|
of `fetch` instead of `Pull:`):
|
|
|
|
------------
|
|
[remote "<remote>"]
|
|
url = <url>
|
|
push = <refspec>
|
|
fetch = <refspec>
|
|
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
The name of a file in `$GIT_DIR/branches` directory can be
|
|
specified as an older notation short-hand; the named
|
|
file should contain a single line, a URL in one of the
|
|
above formats, optionally followed by a hash `#` and the
|
|
name of remote head (URL fragment notation).
|
|
`$GIT_DIR/branches/<remote>` file that stores a <url>
|
|
without the fragment is equivalent to have this in the
|
|
corresponding file in the `$GIT_DIR/remotes/` directory.
|
|
|
|
------------
|
|
URL: <url>
|
|
Pull: refs/heads/master:<remote>
|
|
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
while having `<url>#<head>` is equivalent to
|
|
|
|
------------
|
|
URL: <url>
|
|
Pull: refs/heads/<head>:<remote>
|
|
------------
