That "with colon" is pretty much how it was designed to be used, but
the code did not insist that the insteadof has at least the scheme
part, and by mistake allowed something like this
[url "k.org:/pub/scm/git"] insteadOf = g
to be used with "g/foo" to expand to "k.org:/pub/scm/git/foo".
But if "git fetch g/foo" with such a configuration happily goes to
"k.org:/pub/scm/git/foo" without problems, then I think it is very
reasonable to delay the "is that a local filename?" short-cut "git
clone" does and let the insteadof URL expand take place before it.
