Yeah, that, possibly with These are deprecated; do not use them.,
would be a better way forward. As we deprecated rsync long time

that.
I see. Will we remove ftp[s] support too? I hope this is in order.

At least according to the documentation[1], Git natively supports [...]
ftp.
This could need some clarification if pushing over ftp is not supported.
The commit 5ce4f4e (Documentation/urls: Rewrite to accomodate

Hm, my bad. Would this fix the problem?

Fw: [git-users] How do I git-push to an FTP server?
On the git-users mailing list we're trying someone to help with running `git push` over FTP. That person is runnig Git 1.7.9.5 on Ubuntu 12.04. Below is the trace captured while trying to perform such a faulty push. The oddity (in my eyes) is that after uploading the files, Git executes `git http-push` which manual page does not mention FTP at all. So I'd like to ask experts on Git transports for any advice in this situation.
