clone: allow configurable default for `-o`/`--origin` While the default remote name of "origin" can be changed at clone-time with `git clone`'s `--origin` option, it was previously not possible to specify a default value for the name of that remote. Add support for a new `clone.defaultRemoteName` config, with the newly-created remote name resolved in priority order: 1. (Highest priority) A remote name passed directly to `git clone -o` 2. A `clone.defaultRemoteName=new_name` in config `git clone -c` 3. A `clone.defaultRemoteName` value set in `/path/to/template/config`, where `--template=/path/to/template` is provided 4. A `clone.defaultRemoteName` value set in a non-template config file 5. The default value of `origin` Helped-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com> Helped-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de> Helped-by: Derrick Stolee <stolee@gmail.com> Helped-by: Andrei Rybak <rybak.a.v@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Sean Barag <sean@barag.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
