It was written much later than the insteadOf code, as it was part of the http.$url.* matching, and it may be reasonable to simply teach the insteadOf code to use it. OTOH, it may need tweaked because I'm not sure how it would handle non-URLs like the "host:path" ssh form. -Peff -- 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
