Description
I keep my castle repos on a private server, so every time I use homesick generate I have to go in and use git remote set-url origin to point the checkout to the correct URI.
This should be overridable by envariable, or, better yet, a config file -- such as ~/.homesick/config or $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/homesick/config. The latter approach would allow setting defaults for other commands, similar to .gitconfig.

Research direction
Start by tracing the homesick generate command and checking how command settings are currently handled. Decide how an overridable origin URL and a config file at ~/.homesick/config or $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/homesick/config should work, with done meaning generate uses the configured repository URL and the configuration can provide defaults for other commands.
