Another nice thing with the git protocol is that we can keep the
repository "interface" constant --- it's always "git://server/repo"
for us, even if we have the repo one day at /repos/git/repo, or later
decide to move it to /backedup/repos/git/repo.  All we have to do is
change the git-daemon file and point it at the new repo, and all the
developers' origin files need not change.  You can do this with
symlinks, I suppose, but after the third move, we really appreciated
the git mobility and disliked the litter of symlinks:-)
