[PATCH v5 8/9] connect: actively reject git:// urls with a user part

Message-ID: <20160516000740.19042-9-mh@glandium.org>
In-Reply-To: <20160516000740.19042-1-mh@glandium.org>

Currently, urls of the for git://user@host don't work because user@host is not resolving at the DNS level, but we shouldn't be relying on it being an invalid host name, and actively reject it for containing a username in the first place.
