I believe some cases will want to use a URL which is "http://something"; and have some other option cause the code to use "git helper-svn". I think it's necessary to distinguish *where* the repo is (which includes how you reach it) from *what* the repo is. I don't think it's necessary to have the helper naming distinguish which was used, but both mechanisms need to be available for deciding. -Daniel *This .sig left intentionally blank* -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
