+[XXX: The structure of the preceding section follows that of the
+original hgbook. But an alternate structure that arranged to pull from
+the originally cloned repository (as would be common) would allow for
+more straightforward use of git's features. For example, instead of
+the silly FETCH_HEAD stuff it would allow for "git fetch" and "git log
+master..origin" to be a very nice replacement for "hg
+incoming". Similarly, below, "git log origin..master" would make a
+nice replacement for "hg outgoing" which is something I didn't offer
+at all. One could also use git's remotes with the myriad repositories
+as used here, but it would require doing things like "git remote add
+<some-name> ../hello-pull" and that seems like a bit much to introduce
+for a turorial of this level. If nothing else, if the above section
+seems a little intimidating, understand that it's because things are
+not presented in the most natural "git way", (and I'm a little too
+tired to fix it tonight).]
