0.8.21 - 2026-08-11

Protocol and URL substitution for subproject remotes

  • Added a local per-developer protocol preference: git-nest config set clone protocol ssh|https|http|manifest stores the transport
    preference in .gitnest-rc (repo-wide, not committed).
  • restore --prefer-ssh|--prefer-https|--prefer-http|--prefer-default
    overrides the protocol for a single run and re-points each subproject's
    origin to the effective URL; restore --dry-run previews the change.
  • Per-subproject exact URL override: git-nest config set <path> substitute-url <url> for hosts whose SSH shape cannot be derived
    from the HTTPS URL (Azure DevOps, custom ports, Gerrit).
  • Transport is rewritten via environment-level git insteadOf per
    unique host -- zero persistent git-config writes, no call-site changes
    (git 2.31+ required for GIT_CONFIG_COUNT support).
  • config list now shows repo, clone-mode, substitute-url, protocol
    (from both the manifest and .gitnest-rc); the new rc-writing
    helpers support config set/get/unset for rc keys.
  • verify compares origin against the effective URL by default (host+path
    identity, protocol-tolerant); verify --strict checks the exact
    canonical manifest URL and rejects active rc overrides.
  • Documented the url.<base>.insteadOf pattern, substitute-url, and
    protocol preference in a new "Connecting To Your Remotes" section in
    the Manual.
