Hmph, do you mean that
git clone https://user:[email protected]/repository/
git clone ssh://user:[email protected]/repository/
if the "password" has '#' in it? Do passwords with colon, slash or
at-sign have the same issue? Would it help to URI escape the
problematic characters?
It is a separate issue to use passwords embedded in the URLs, but
still, escaping ought to work.
