+Performance
+    Using an arbitrary `<giturl>` requires uploading the entire
+    repository history with each push.  If your repository history is
+    large and git-remote-gcrypt is slow, consider using either the

+    pushes.  Note that this won't work with a repository hosting
+    service like GitHub.
