For some definition of "we"; AFAICT, github has never allowed this, and this is the first complaint (we run a stock git-daemon, but our forwarding proxies are picky about getting real "user/project" style paths, since they need them to route to the correct backends).

However, it turned out to be a one-line patch. I've pushed it out for review by other GitHubbers. The last thing the world needs is me deploying anything to a live website.
