Thanks for the feedback. I improved the URL tester to deal with the Git protocol (so now it checks that it talks to a valid Git repository for e.g. Vcs-Git URLs), and also added an override for the Repository metadata field, to check using that method, if the field looks like a Git repository. It would have been better to name the field "Repository-Git" or something to avoid guessing the type of repository based on URL, but it's probably too late for that. Lucas
