I think it would be better to do this:

-- snip -- . git-parse-remote test "$(get_remote_url origin)" != origin && echo "is cloned" -- snap --

There are 3 different ways to store remote information ATM, and this method gets them all (even if, at a certain distant time in the future, the default should be changed).
