Hrm. The problem v2.11's new object-quarantine system. The receiving side of a push will write into a new temporary object directory, and refer to the original with the GIT_ALTERNATE_OBJECT_DIRECTORIES environment variable. But that variable splits its entries on ":", and has no way of representing a path that includes a ":".
So I think the solution would probably be to introduce some kind of quoting mechanism to that variable, so that it can pass through arbitrary paths. Or alternatively use a separate variable, but that does nothing to help other cases where somebody wants to use xxx:yyy.git as an alternate.
(One other option is to just declare that the quarantine feature doesn't work with colons in the pathname, but stop turning it on by default. I'm not sure I like that, though).
Here's a rough idea of what the quoting solution could look like. It should make your case work, but I'm not sure what we want to do about backwards-compatibility, if anything.
