== Problem

I ran the following to get the sources for GHC to build them:

{{{ git clone -o ghc --recursive http://git.haskell.org/ghc.git }}}

Note especially the `-o ghc` part, which uses the Git origin name `ghc` instead of the default `origin`. When a custom origin name is used, `./boot` fails:

{{{ $ ./boot Traceback (most recent call last): File "./boot", line 193, in <module> check_for_url_rewrites() File "./boot", line 29, in check_for_url_rewrites subprocess.check_output('git config remote.origin.url'.split()).find(b'github.com') != -1 and \ File "/usr/lib/python3.5/subprocess.py", line 626, in check_output **kwargs).stdout File "/usr/lib/python3.5/subprocess.py", line 708, in run output=stdout, stderr=stderr) subprocess.CalledProcessError: Command '['git', 'config', 'remote.origin.url']' returned non-zero exit status 1

$ git config remote.origin.url

$ echo $? 1 }}}

== Solution

To get the URL of the proper origin name, `git config branch.master.remote` can be used to get the origin name to use to get the URL:

{{{ $ git config "remote.$( git config branch.master.remote ).url" http://git.haskell.org/ghc.git }}}

== Workaround

Rename the origin to `origin`:

{{{ $ git remote rename "$( git config branch.master.remote )" origin $ ./boot Creating libraries/mtl/ghc.mk Creating libraries/unix/ghc.mk Creating libraries/text/ghc.mk ⋮ }}}

== Problemorf

{{{ git clone -o ghc --recursive http://git.haskell.org/ghc.git }}}

$ git config remote.origin.url

$ echo $? 1 }}}

== Solution

`git config remote.origin.url` can be used first. Whenever `git config remote.origin.url` fails, a `git rev-parse` command (thanks to freenode/#git/_ikke_ for it) can be used to get the remote name and branch that would be pushed to:

{{{ $ git rev-parse --symbolic-full-name --abbrev-ref @{upstream} ghc/coercible

$ git rev-parse --symbolic-full-name --abbrev-ref @{upstream} | sed 's/\/.*$//' ghc

$ git config "remote.$( git rev-parse --symbolic-full-name --abbrev-ref @{upstream} | sed 's/\/.*$//' ).url" http://git.haskell.org/ghc.git }}}
