Is it worth to mention that this case is "still supported legacy" ?
If it's worth mentioning anywhere, it seems to me it would start with
urls.txt?
Mike
I don't know.
urls.txt is for Git users, and connect.c is for Git developers.
urls.txt does not mention that Git follows any RFC when parsing the
URLS', it doesn't claim to be 100% compliant.
Even if it makes sense to do so, as many user simply expect Git to accept
RFC compliant URL's, and it makes the development easier, if there is an
already
written specification, that describes all the details.
The parser is not 100% RFC compliant, one example:
- old-style usgage like "git clone [host:222]:~/path/to/repo are supported
To easy the live for developers, it could make sense why the code is as
it is,
simply to avoid that people around the world suddenly run into problems,
when they upgrade the Git version.
So if there is a comment in the code, it could help new developers to
understand
things easier.
