$ git clone https://this.host.does.not.exist/foo Cloning into 'foo'... error: The requested URL returned error: 500 while accessing http://this.host.does.not.exist/foo/info/refs fatal: HTTP request failed Hmm. Telling me the host doesn't exist is more useful than 500: $ git clone git://this.host.does.not.exist/foo Cloning into 'foo'... fatal: Unable to look up this.host.does.not.exist (port 9418) (Name or service not known) Does anyone care about this other than me? :-) -- 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
