Re: Why not clone to a remote directory over SSH

It might be cool to enable cloning to a remote over ssh if the remote

% git clone . machine:/path/to/new/repository

I wonder if that is:

	$ ssh machine 'git clone '`hostname`:`pwd`' /path/to/new/repository'

Obviously you need a working git setup on the other end and
probably need to be much more careful shell-quoting if your
hostname and pwd has metacharacters, but...
