Perhaps you could paste a fetch URL to some gitweb inputbox at the top of every page and it would show the right thing, sort of like mldonkey with ed2k URLs...

Show 6 quoted lines

We already have .git/refs/remote/ where the tracking branches are just the same name as on the other side, we only need to start really using it.
