Simply detect if using git repository backend. gitception:// is unneeded

Simply treat absolute paths that do not lead to a HEAD file as local
directory backends, and all other as git backends.

 This helper handles gcrypt:: URLs that will access a remote repository
 encrypted with GPG, using our custom format.
 
-Supported locations are `local`, `ssh://`, `sftp://` and
-`gitception://`. `gcrypt::gitception://<giturl>` allows stacking gcrypt
-on top of any other git transport.
+Supported locations are `local`, `ssh://` and `sftp://`, where the
+repository is stored as a set of files. If the location instead is any
+`<giturl>`, gcrypt will store the same representation in a git
+repository, and so it can be bridged over any git transport.
 
 .. NOTE:: Repository format MAY STILL change, incompatibly
