I would prefer a command line more like the rsync one:
       git-sync master.kernel.org:directory  ....

Or:
       git-sync :ssh:master.kernel.org:directory  ....

Or "uri like":
       git-sync ssh://mylogin@master.kernel.org/directory  ....

It seems much easier, and I suppose that SSH should be the
default "developer" protocol.
