AFAIK, Mercurial allows for URLs like
`ssh://example.org//home/sewe/example-project/`. Unfortunately, the Mercurial
SCM provider turns this into `hg push
ssh://example.org/home/sewe/example-project/`, which fails if, e.g., the
Mercurial server is configured to look for repositories in the user's home
directory (may or may not be `/home/sewe`, depending on your login) **unless**
an absolute path is explicitly requested by using a path starting with a double
slash.
