[egit-dev] Trying to use git-remote-gcrypt / remote repository URL mangl

[Lehner Georg <jorge-eclipse@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

I have tried to use EGit (via GitEye and via stock Eclipse) to work with 
a repository with an encrypted remote.

See: git-remote-gcrypt: https://github.com/spwhitton/git-remote-gcrypt 
for information on this.

The remote has the following URL:

 gcrypt::nrf51xxx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:git/repo1

Access to the repository fails immediately and in the logs I find:

  gcrypt@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:git/repo1: Auth fail

So it seems, that

a) the URL gets mangled in a way, that EGit thinks, the user name is 
gcrypt - when it should be nrf51xxx.

b) the gcrypt:: transport is not handled by EGit
   See: https://git-scm.com/docs/git-remote-helpers

- - -
Can this be fixed easily? (get the URL right internally)

Are git-remote-helpers supported?

Best Regards,

  Georg Lehner
