Re: Allowing override of the default "origin" nickname

I'm not sure if this is actually relevant to your situation, but I've got 
a patch (which I'll probably send post-1.5.4) to allow configuration of 
aliases for URLs, such that git will rewrite (for example) 
master.kernel.org:/pub/... to git://git.kernel.org/pub/...; if you're 
reading a discussion between kernel.org users on the linux-kernel mailing 
list and you don't have a kernel.org account, and you want to try things, 
this patch makes it a lot easier (cut-and-paste the URL you can't actually 
use, and it uses the variant you prefer without making you deal with it 
for each URL).

If, for each person, there's a single best access method to the data, but 
there's no single access method that works for all of the participants, 
they could use this patch, and use per-user configuration to replace all 
of the other possible names with the one they have to use.
