But why is https special? Why not fall back to the git protocol? Or http? (And no: I'm not serious here ;-) After the first failed clone of the submodule at via SSH the developer could also just do a git config submodule.<name>.url https://host/repo and override the URL from .gitmodules. But maybe I misunderstood why you want to have a fall back? -- 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
