In other words, I think making each helper function do one thing and one thing well is a good thing, and "register" should focus on registering the new repository to the system.

By the way, it is excellent that the new option honors the positive form (i.e. "clone --maintenance" and "clone --no-maintenance"). I was re-reading the patches and was pleasantly surprised, as I would have forgotten to do so while focusing too much on the shiny new feature of being able to disable if I were doing these patches.
