I played around with it further, there are a couple of serious bugs in this feature. Apparently the uri scheme only works if a port (and may it only be the standard port 4691) is given and thats also the reason why the tests don't alert the problem, becase they always run a local mtn instance on the non-standard port. Furthermore, known-servers gets the complete URI instead of just the hostname set when the mtn uri is used: known-servers: mtn://guitone.thomaskeller.biz:4691 f814415176bf04178c64895b19ef99752159626d known-servers: mtn://guitone.thomaskeller.biz:4691?include=net.venge.monotone.guitone f814415176bf04178c64895b19ef99752159626d This leads to new entries each time the branch pattern changes only slightly and means also that the user is alerted of a "new server" each time. I don't had the time yet to debug this further, I only re-assured that parse_uri() itself doesn't seem to be the problem, because port-less URIs are tested there and the test succeeds.
