Hi,

these two patches implement the migration of remote information into the 
config file. They need the patch I sent out earlier to allow hierarchical
section names (i.e. names containing dots). A config file can look like 
this:

	[remote.junio]
		url = http://www.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git.git
		pull = master:junio
		pull = todo:todo
		pull = +pu:pu

The second patch makes git automatically migrate existing remote 
information into the config file.

Ciao,
Dscho
