Can Metacello use an already loaded BaselineOf class instead of loading the baseline from a repository? #378

I am not sure whether this is a usage question, a feature request, a conceptual misunderstanding of mine or simply impossible. Enlighten me, please. :-)

The following situation: I have a fresh image and a project on GitHub which I want to check out in the image. That project has a baseline which specifies dependencies. I would like to load the project and its dependencies so I can start working. The tricky part: I would like to use metacello-git. I do not know of a supported URL format for Metacello new repository: '...' to specify for that kind of repository. So I loaded the baseline class via the Monticello Browser, but not the principal project package. How can I (or is it possible at all) load the project, given the baseline class, with Metacello? The baseline class is not in the registry yet.
