Subject: git clone does not understand insteadOf URLs

Hello,

it seems that `git clone` does not understand keywords used `insteadOf` 
longer URLs.

     $ git clone remote-repo/ProjectA.git
     fatal repository 'remote-repo/ProjectA.git' does not exist

I suppose that git interprets the argument as a local directory. Git 
should see if the argument matches one of the known URLs before raising 
an error.

Regards,
