What is the problem?

ATM if we e.g. clone from github with another http git special remote autoenabled, we do enable it, but then we do not fetch it. If its git-annex branch is advanced forward from what we have pushed to github, local clone lacks that information. So I wondered if we should also fetch upon autoenable if that git remote (after enableremote) has a url field defined (AFAIK that is a sign that it is a regular git remote). What do you think?

Oh hoh, we (well @chaselgrove) ran into it within ReproNim/containers#44 . We better have it resolved and it should be "easy". @kyleam would be you kind to have a look?

…t working in TMPDIR

original report: #44

Use /// since that is where we have all the images and there is a bug to be fixed on datalad
end: datalad/datalad#2897

With using TMPDIR and () we can make it cut/pasteable and/or script.  We could
possibly even automate testing of this snippet since it would be easy to
identify it in the README.md (might do later).  And set -eu  is a demonstration
of good practices we try to encourage in our training materials

Otherwise `datalad get` fails to get content that is only in the
special remote and not known to the other remotes.

Fixes datalad#2897.

The original recipe from ReproNim/containers#44 fails on my end too and is resolved by #4783.
