Thanks for your suggestion Bastien, but unfortunately it does not directly
map to the shortcut that I implemented in my package. In my *old* syntax:

    git:repo::file.txt

file.txt is a search pattern for a *file* with in the symbolic repo "repo"
which maps to a real repo through the hash variable my-org-repos. The whole
idea was that I wanted to be able to use the symbolic name as a shortcut.
In addition file.txt is not the path of a file in the repo, but a search
pattern for a file in the repo. In case of duplicates the user is prompted
to interactively resolve the file. In addition I would also like to add a
search pattern for a string in the file.

My problem is how to merge this syntax with the org-git-link.el which uses
the syntax

git:/home/user/repo/data/results.png::nobelprize

where /home/.../results.png is the name of the path to a file and
nobelprize is the name of a tag.

Both my linking and the org-git-linking are two different equally valid use
cases. My problem is how to merge both these use cases under a single
syntax.

Regards,
Dov
