And it completely breaks down when you have more than one remotes. Or when 
you cd to another project with another remote. Or etc. IOW it is fragile.

Clearly, the config approach is the only one which makes sense. This 
information is so closely coupled to a specific remote that you should 
store it right where you store all the other remote information, too.

Ciao,
