proposal: allow git clone for http-hosted bundles

2016-07-16 Thread mappu
Hi list, Right now it's possible to git clone a repository over http, and git clone a bundle from the local filesystem, but it's not possible to git clone a bundle hosted on http. Would it be possible to allow this in the future? Hopefully it's only a minor refactor in `builtin/clone.c`.
