This is indeed a bug.
We handle literal IPv6 adresses OK, we handle ssh://user@host OK.
But it seems as if you are the first one using the combination of both,
thanks for the bug report.

If somebody want to have a look in the Git source tree:
connect.c, t/t5500-fetch-pack.sh and t/t5601-clone.sh may deserve an update.
