[Colin Watson <cjwatson@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The proposal to merge lp:~cjwatson/launchpad/git-defaults into lp:launchpad has been updated.

Description changed to:

Implement target and owner-target default Git repositories.

This presents two different layers because of the different ways we'll need to call this.  For the webservice, it's simplest to just have {get,set}DefaultRepository* methods on GitRepositorySet.  But for some internal purposes, it's useful to have an ICanHasDefaultGitRepository abstraction that's sortable and so on, much like ICanHasLinkedBranch: this is useful when working out Git identities.

I chose to have {get,set}DefaultRepository and {get,set}DefaultRepositoryForOwner be separate methods rather than taking an optional owner keyword argument, because I felt that the optional argument causing completely different semantics was a little too easy to get wrong for webservice users.  It's marginally more awkward internally but not too bad.
