Perhaps I should clarify this statement a bit.
I _hate_ the default remote. One of the first things I wind up
doing is deleting it and creating a new one. At least git-clone has
the -o flag to setup your own name, which then the tools (git-fetch
and git-push) cannot find.
Anytime I use git-fetch, git-pull or git-push I am always giving
it a remote name, or a remote name and a refspec. So having these
tools default to 'origin' is of little to no value to me.
