Subject: Unable to clone a repo over an IPv6 link local address: port got trimmed to 4 chars
Message-ID: <53A9735E.8080604@luminar.eu.org>

I discovered an issue while trying to clone a git repo over an IPv6 link-local address:

[vb@nerenyi ~/code/ocaml-llnet]% LANG=C git clone "http://[fe80::226:c6ff:fe50:efa0%wlan0]:33075/repo"

Cloning into 'repo'...
fatal: unable to access 'http://[fe80::226:c6ff:fe50:efa0%wlan0]:33075/repo/': Failed to connect to fe80::226:c6ff
:fe50:efa0 port 3307: Connection refused

It tries to connect to port 3307, and not 33075, strangely.

Cheers,
