Git repository configuration can be accessed via Repository::getConfig(). Return Type - StoredConfig.

To get the remote source url use this snippet

String url = repository.getConfig().getString("remote", "origin", "url");

The class ConfigConstantslists a set of commonly used section names and value names.
