7 i.e. git-2.eclass provides support for environment override (and
8 variables) for branches, commits and repos, for example
9 EGIT_REPO_URI=<some other fancy git clone>

11 Hard to cover/encode this functionality in your proposed urls.
12
13 These look - by the way - a lot like the "new" packer-4.something git
14 url in Archlinux/AUR.
15
16 "our" VCS eclasses should still be superior in functionality.
17

19 ++ for global RESTRICT="fetch|mirror" with overrides in both ways on
20 per url basis as prefix to the protocol, like nomirror+http:// and
21 fetch+git:// . But this needs tivial (?) adaption in every VCS eclass.
