testing for cloned repository

I am using:
if [ -f ".git/remotes/origin" ]; then
	# this repository is a clone
fi
in a bash script to test if a repository was cloned and then do  
appropriate pulls and pushes which fit my situation.
Is this the proper way to test this or should I be using something  
different?

Thanks in advance for your help and for providing git.  I have been  
using it on my Linux and MacOSX machines without any problems.

I think it would be better to do this:

-- snip --
. git-parse-remote
test "$(get_remote_url origin)" != origin && echo "is cloned"
-- snap --

There are 3 different ways to store remote information ATM, and this 
method gets them all (even if, at a certain distant time in the future, 
the default should be changed).
