Trying to clone from a project with url:
name@host:path
Real-world example:
tom@myserver:/cmdata/git/myproject
fails with an error could not resolve hostname myserver:: no address
associated with name
Take special attention on the two colons ::
because when I try to clone from (removed the colon after the server)
tom@myserver/cmdata/git/myproject
it works.
On the other hand using tortoiseGit it definitely shows up the colon
after the server name.
So for me it looks like the user-server-path spliting of the url is
performed on the wrong separators ...
Two points:
* According to the GIT URLS section of the git-clone manual page,
a stray colon between the server and path components is only allowed
when working over SSH (to mimic scp's convention).
So are you cloning via SSH? I would not be surprised it doesn't work
for git:// or http[s]://.
* Shouldn't this problem be reported to the TortoiseGit's tracker?
Personally, I don't care but I think it's a good idea.
