It's not magical if you don't wonder about it.

For example, setting up origin was a detail I never even thought about  
until I had to create my own repository ;)  I thought it was just  
implicitly defined.

Most people aren't interested in knowing the inner workings of git, they  
only care about getting their contributions into the right place.
