Arjun's comments stand.

Even with --replace-sources the URL is not updated, and so this change
might in the worst case checkout code from a repo you didn't intend to
reference.

Arjun provided a patch in the comment.

Structurally the rest of the changes are OK, but it needs the origin
url update code to be correct.
