[PATCH v2 06/13] Allow specifying the remote helper in the url

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@xxxxxx>

The common case for remote helpers will be to import some repository
which can be specified by a single URL.  Support this use case by
allowing users to say:

	git clone hg::https://soc.googlecode.com/hg/ soc
