This is from the Net::Netrc module.  Fixed in my commit but eh...

This is all out of Net::Netrc, and yes, it's pre-Mac OS X.  I think it's
safe to leave as is, but I can remove OS/2 and MacOS if you prefer.

Yes.  test.pl checks that host=foo doesn't find the above, as well.

At least for now let's leave it standalone.  When and if it moves into
the core, we can change it to use the core's Git.pm and test suite.  The
code and the tests are small enough that I think using Perl's Test
module makes the most sense right now.

What?  Was I supposed to use formats?!?!

Yes.  See test.netrc.

Thanks
