Thank you very much, that was exactly what I needed. Should've probably thought about that myself.

I agree, that should be mentioned. Especially under the point
"try out modular boost".

As Boost is hosted on GitHub, all the options it offers also work with Boost.
See here:
https://help.github.com/articles/which-remote-url-should-i-use/

That should probably be mentioned in the docs.
