Cannot clone non-github repository about ghr

[martinus]

good to hear, thank you!

Hi @martinus, we have just published v0.3.2, a new version of ghr, including support of additional patterns for cloning.

Since ghr is oriented to manage repositories in host -> owner -> repo structure, ghr needs to identify which part in URL specifies host, owner, or repo. Thus we need to configure a pattern in regex in ~/.ghr/ghr.toml.

This is the example configuration to clone torvalds/linux:

[[patterns]]
regex = "^(?P<scheme>https)://(?P<host>git\\.kernel\\.org)/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/(?P<owner>.+)/(?P<repo>.+)\\.git"

If there are any question(s), feel free to write here or open a new issue.
Thank you for using ghr!

@martinus
Thank you for trying ghr and reporting this.
Of course supporting non-GitHub repos is in the objective, but ghr expects /[org]/[repo].git style paths.

Supporting other style paths is tracked in #45.
I am going to priotrise this issue.
