It would have, if git and svn supported SRV lookups, but you're right, it does not have it set up today. :-) [...] | For example, perhaps svn:// should correspond to _svn._tcp.{hostname} | before it falls back to {hostname}:3690? Sounds sensible to me. | I'd be reluctant to push for SRV lookups for http:// and https://, as | that would be a break from what other HTTP and WebDAV clients do. Agreed, and http/https can give out redirects, so I'm less fussed about those. Julien Cristau wrote a proof of concept patch for git, see http://people.debian.org/~jcristau/git-srv-hack.diff for the patch; it doesn't look too bad.
