I'd like to do this sequence, but I can't figure out how without editing
the config file. There doesn't seem to be a simple command to move the
origin.

git clone linus
move origin to digispeaker.git
AKA "git config remote.origin.url <your-digispeaker-url-here>"
There is more to this:

jonsmirl@terra:~/foo$ git clone
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git
ds
clone.....
jonsmirl@terra:~/foo/ds$ git config remote.origin.url
http://git.digispeaker.com/projects/digispeaker-kernel.git
jonsmirl@terra:~/foo/ds$ git pull
You asked me to pull without telling me which branch you
want to merge with, and 'branch.master.merge' in
your configuration file does not tell me either.  Please
name which branch you want to merge on the command line and
try again (e.g. 'git pull <repository> <refspec>').
See git-pull(1) for details on the refspec.

If you often merge with the same branch, you may want to
configure the following variables in your configuration
file:

    branch.master.remote = <nickname>
    branch.master.merge = <remote-ref>
    remote.<nickname>.url = <url>
    remote.<nickname>.fetch = <refspec>

See git-config(1) for details.
