That does not make any sense. For example, I track "git://git.kernel.org/.../git.git" and "192.168.0.128:gits/git.git". Something very similar applies to the host name: if you track multiple Linux repos, chances are that most of them are on git.kernel.org.

I guess _if_ you have more than one upstream you are tracking (which is not the most common case, but hey, git-remote is for exactly that case) it is not uncommon to have similar urls.

IMHO Junio's proposal is as good as it gets.

Ciao, Dscho
