Feature #5278
openRequire support for git repositories of the form git://
0%
Description
When trying to import a git repository with a URL in the format "git://git.abc.com/project" I get the error message: "Invalid clone url, provide a valid clone url starting with one of http,svn+http,hg+http"
Going a git clone on the same repository works fine from the command line.
Please could you enable support for these remote repositories?
(PS. It is possible to do the git clone git://git.abc.com/project manually to import the repository while waiting for this feature?)

Hi,
We're sorry but we wont support cloning over git:// protocol. RhodeCode needs to rely on fastest, and secure protocol which is https. The git://protocol doesn't allow authentication, and is only meant for cloning.
To import repositories to RhodeCode you can simply clone a bare repos into rhodecode storage, and run remap & rescan from admin > settings. This will pick up any repositories added into the storage directory.
