And that is how it was designed to be. The URL's are for *git*, not for

it's a "git" thing wheher it's browsable or not, so the argument that ssh
is something "different" is bogus crapola.

That throws out the *U* of *URL*, which stands for Uniform. If you
have to say whether a URL is a "git" URL or some other kind of URL,
it's no longer a Uniform Resource Locator.


No it doesn't. It's no less uniform just because not every program in the
world understands what to do with a particular URL. It's still uniform
in that it follows the tried and tested scheme of "protocol://host/path".
The fact that firefox, opera, konqueror and IE doesn't know what to do
with it means absolutely nothing.
