Save a Remote to a Repository's config

[skeggse]

Is there an easy way to save a Remote to a Repository? It looks like gix does it under the hood with write_remote_to_local_config_file during fetch, but that's in a private module.

It would seem like remote.save_as_to("origin".into(), repo.config_snapshot_mut().config) should work, except config is crate-private. Is there an accepted way to do this?

Indeed, the save_as_to or save_to methods can be used to write remote configuration, and it is possible to obtain a bare gix_config::File by means of &mut snapshot I think.

However, writing the configuration back isn't easy, non-plumbing APIs don't exist for that yet.
