-REMOTES
--------
-
-In addition to the above, as a short-hand, the name of a
-file in `$GIT_DIR/remotes` directory can be given; the
-named file should be in the following format:
-
- URL: one of the above URL format
- Push: <refspec>
- Pull: <refspec>
-
-Then such a short-hand is specified in place of
-<repository> without <refspec> parameters on the command
-line, <refspec> specified on `Push:` lines or `Pull:`
-lines are used for `git-push` and `git-fetch`/`git-pull`,
-respectively. Multiple `Push:` and and `Pull:` lines may
-be specified for additional branch mappings.
-
-The name of a file in `$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>
