Ok, I've  reimplemented the original  test-http behavior as  the default
while retaining the ability to have the same flexibility in using Fossil
capabilities with SSH URLs:

http://www.fossil-scm.org/index.html/timeline?r=ssh-test-http

When you get a chance, if this works out better.

Basically, the default is to spawn a remote ``fossil test-http'' command
when cloning (or even in an existing open fossil).

But if  the remote side requires  http and not test-http  (e.g. SSH keys
are enforcing fossil http, then the client can request that as well:

fossil clone --ssh-use-http ssh://amb@remote//tmp/new.fossil clone.fossil

Which of course will require that the user enter the Fossil password.

Thanks,

Andy
