feature request: support full URLs

[seasonedfish]

I prefer copying the full URL of a repository, e.g. https://github.com/Tarrasch/zsh-bd, over the path, e.g. Tarrasch/zsh-bd.

However, I get an error when I use the full URL with zcomet:

I'm guessing zcomet automatically adds https://github.com/ to the argument of load.

It would be more convenient if zcomet supported full URLs. Another benefit would be support for repositories outside of Github

Thanks for showing interest!

What you say is absolutely true, and the features you're asking for are definitely part of the plan. I'll let you know when I add them.

[seasonedfish]

Ah cool, thanks!

[agkozak]

It was quite easy to make zcomet accept full GitHub URLs, e.g.

https://github.com/agkozak/zsh-z
http://github.com/agkozak/zsh-z
https://github.com/agkozak/zsh-z.git
https://github.com/agkozak/zsh-z.git@some-branch

I've got the changes up on the github branch. I'd love it if you have the time to try it out; if you're happy with how it works, I'll merge it to master.

After that I'll tackle non-GitHub URLs, protocols other than HTTP(S), etc. etc.

Thanks so much! It works well.

[agkozak]

Great. I merged it to master. Non-GitHub Git servers are next. I'll keep you informed.

@agkozak Could we close this issue if it's all merged it? Thanks!

[agkozak]

I haven't addressed non-GitHub servers yet, so I'd prefer to keep it open, if that's all right.
