Hi,

I encountered a quite weird bug when I tried to clone a repository
into the /tmp folder (I just wanted to test something, so I was
working in /tmp).

I run the following command in /tmp :
    git clone ssh://[user]@[host]/project/[project_name]
and I got the following error:
    fatal: the protocol '/tmp/ssh' is not supported

I got the same result if a run the following command from /tmp directory:
    git clone ssh://[user]@[host]/project/[project_name] /tmp/project_name

Nevertheless, the command works in other directories. Even the second
command works when run from another directory (this command: git clone
ssh://[user]@[host]/project/[project_name] /tmp/project_name).

It is very specific and can easily be worked around so it is no big
deal but I preferred reporting this in case it hides something else.

Have a good day!
