Subject: FEATURE REQUEST: Allow SSH style URLS (with extra colon)
Message-ID: <87tyu3cyy3.fsf@jondo.cante.net>


According to git-clone[1] the SSH protocol is specied as:

    ssh://[user@]host.xz[:port]/path

It woudl be nice if the ":" were allowed, so that the familiar SSH style
patch notation could be used, making the spec:

    ssh://[user@]host.xz[:[port]]/path

An example:

    ssh://foo@examplecom:/path
                        |
                        Allowed
