A bit more explanatory:

    "query push URLs rather than fetch URLs"

Fixed.

What is the reason for PARSE_OPT_KEEP_ARGV0 in this case?

Copied from get-url; I presume for more natural argv[] usage within the
function.

quoted

+       if (argc < 1 || argc > 2)
+               usage_with_options(builtin_remote_geturl_usage, options);

So,  'argc' must be 1 or 2, which in 'argv' terms is argv[0] and argv[1]).

…

quoted

+       remotename = argv[1];

But here, argv[1] is accessed unconditionally, even though 'argc' may
have been 1, thus out of bounds.

Yep, should be (argc < 2 || argc > 2) (or 1 if PARSE_OPT_KEEP_ARGV0 is
removed). Off-by-one when converting from get-url.

I'll reroll tomorrow morning in case there are more comments until then
(particularly about PARSE_OPT_KEEP_ARGV0).

Thanks,
