Does git have a built-in command for showing the name of the current remote project? Right now I\'m using this:
git remote -v | head -n1 | awk \'{print $2}\' | s
What you are doing is fine. I would not trust that someone won't change the name in a readme file. Use the URL as you are doing. Decide on a convention so that origin always refers to the central repo where the urls will contain the identity.
