I think it's a great idea to have repository discovery server and
clients parts in JGit. It would also be good if it could provide hints
for repository configuration. The Gerrit connector adds a config
property so that the Change-Id line is automatically added by EGit,
and it sets HEAD:refs/for/master as default refspec. If the server
provides this information, a generic client could configure the
repository as announced by the server.
