http://git.wikimedia.org/raw/mediawiki%2Fextensions%2FSemanticMediaWiki.git/master/COPYING

has the same error (with %2F quoting)

Same as T117459 ? Not sure why "operations" was added to this task?

Please read https://github.com/gitblit/gitblit/issues/949#issuecomment-155110940

According to the author of gitblit this was never meant to work like this with sub folders.

And could be fixed with ! in the config I think.

Unfortunately the full quote is:

"This could be fixed by writing urls using the forward-slash-character from the settings (e.g. ! ) and properly parsing the repo from the url using this substitute - but that is not currently implemented."

It's interesting though.. he says "I was not expecting users to create a repo and a subdirectory with the same name." Of course we did just that :p and " Gitblit AFAIK is one of the only complete git hosts (maybe the only one?) that allows nested subdirectory structures. This capability complicates everything and creates interesting problems like this one. :)"

The only actual solution we seem to have is:

could be fixed today in that installation by renaming the mediawiki/extensions repo to not collide with the mediawiki/extensions/ directory.

and i really don't see that happening.

@Aklapper added operations just in case it is related to some kind of URL rewriting/server-side configuration. Feel free to adjust/remove if needed

Looks like my patch https://github.com/gitblit/gitblit/pull/950 got merged into the Gitblit repo!
