Here's an (arguably) safer and easier to read alternative:

ssh git.debian.org \
"find /git/pkg-multimedia/ -maxdepth 1 -name '*.git' -type d" \
| perl -nE 'm{([^/]+).git$} and say $1' \
| while read package; do
    cat >> .mrconfig <<EOF
[$package]
checkout = gbp clone git+ssh://git.debian.org/git/pkg-multimedia/${package}.git
update = gbp pull
skip = lazy

EOF
done


Beware, though, that my script isn't idempotent.

Other than that, nice explanation!
