No. origin
is automatically created when you clone, pointing to the clone URL, but that's it. In your own local repository, remotes are stored in .git/config
; the only thing in .git
that is ever transmitted is your history.
If you want to provide others with useful configuration, your best bet is to put it on a supplemental website or add a small script to your repository that others can execute to add configuration. Example:
#!/bin/sh
git config remote.blargh.url https://...
git config remote.blargh.fetch +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/blargh/*
