'git-remote add' creates a remote.origin.fetch entry in the config, we
want to replace this entry rather than add another one (which will
cause 'git fetch' to error).
This adds 'git config --remove-section remote.origin' after the fetch
for encouraging users to only use "git svn" for future updates.
