Re: [PATCH] v2: proxy-command support for git://

But perhaps I do not really understand your objection.

No, I think you are getting it right.

I just wanted to avoid using the proxy script for some hosts,
depending on where you are going.  Obviously you can teach the
proxy script to do passthru for some hosts like you did in your
message.  The only difference is where the configuration is
specified.  I wanted it to be in the git configuration file
(i.e. using different proxy script or no script, depending on
the host).  Your example has that configuration wired in the
single script that is always called regardless of the
destination, and the script itself switches how it proxies,
depending on where it is going, perhaps using its own
configuration file or hardcoding.
