Research direction

Start by inspecting the repository's Go source for how Git repository source URLs are currently represented and used. Define the scope of the typed structure around URL, Ref, and Revision, then determine how known providers such as GitHub should expose additional fields. Done means the structure and provider-specific fields are consistently supported.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

When linking to Git repos we should define a typed structure with all the URL, Ref, Revision fields separately. If it is a known URL like GIthub then we can add additional fields.
