Description
I encountered an error while trying to use kwargs with git.repo.base.Repo.create_remote(). As can be seen in the output below, the kwargs are inserted into the git remote add command bit, more specifically, before the add sub-command, rather than appended to it, which git does not seem to like.
File "webhook.py", line 44, in do_POST
conf_parser = rep.create_remote('rocopy', repo_copy, mirror='push').config_writer
File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/git/repo/base.py", line 353, in create_remote
return Remote.create(self, name, url, **kwargs)
File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/git/remote.py", line 480, in create
repo.git.remote("add", name, url, **kwargs)
File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/git/cmd.py", line 431, in <lambda>
return lambda *args, **kwargs: self._call_process(name, *args, **kwargs)
File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/git/cmd.py", line 802, in _call_process
return self.execute(make_call(), **_kwargs)
File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/git/cmd.py", line 607, in execute
raise GitCommandError(command, status, stderr_value)
GitCommandError: 'git remote --mirror=push add rocopy github:tkemmer/test' returned with exit code 129

-v, --verbose be verbose; must be placed before a subcommand
