Subject: [PATCH v6 10/10] git fetch: support host:/~repo

From: Torsten Bögershausen <[email-masked]>
Date: Thu, 21 Nov 2013 21:42:10 +0100

Since commit faea9ccb URLs host:~repo or ssh://host:/~repo
reach the home directory.
In 356bece0 support for [] was introduced, and as a side
effect, [host]:/~repo was the same as [host]:~repo.
The side effect was removed in c01049ae, "connect.c: Corner case for IPv6".

Re-reading the documentation (in urls.txt) we find that
"ssh://host:/~repo",
"host:/~repo" or
"host:~repo"
specifiy the repository "repo" in the home directory at "host".

So make the handling of "host:/~repo" (or "[host]:/~repo") a feature,
and revert the possible regression introduced in c01049ae.
