Ouch, Go never ceases to amaze. The Bitbucket case[0] is even more crazy, calling out to the Bitbucket API to figure out which VCS to use. It has a special case for private repositories, but seems to hard-code cloning over HTTPS.

If only we had some kind of universal way to identify resources, that told you how to access it...

Thanks for the reference to prove me wrong.

Wow, that's sad. I'm glad it works seamlessly, don't get me wrong, but I was assuming I could chalk it up to defacto standards between the various vendors here.
