        <!-- This rewrite rule could be added to the database instead -->
        <rewrite>
            <!-- This is an identifier for your rewrite that should be unique -->
            <!-- THIS IS THE CLASSNAME IN YOUR OWN CONTROLLER -->
            <customcontactsunique>
                <from><![CDATA[#^/checkout/cart/#]]></from>
                <!--
                    - mymodule matches the router frontname below
                    -  matches the path to your controller

                    Considering the router below, "/customcontacts/cart/" will be
                    "translated" to "app/code/local/Amit/Customcontacts/controllers/BagController.php" (?)
                -->
                <to>/checkkout/bag/</to>
            </customcontactsunique>
        </rewrite>
    </global>    

</config>
