You can also edit the file that describe your shorthand notation. If you
normally do "git pull origin" just look into the ".git/remotes/origin"
file, and I think you'll find it very obvious what it all does.

(If you used a really old version of git to create the archive originally,
it might be ".git/branches/origin" instead).
