Makes sense; thanks.

By the way, a somewhat funny exercise I found last night is this:

	$ cd /var/tmp
        $ mkdir -p foo.xz:pub/git.git
        $ cd foo.xz:pub/git.git
        $ git init
        $ git commit --allow-empty -m initial
        $ cd /var/tmp
        $ git clone foo.xz:pub/git.git x

This does not work as the transfer phase wants to run ssh on it.
