When I wrote the message you are responding to, I thought this
was a regression from the current behaviour, which (IIRC--it's
getting late and I am tired to double check) essentially says if
the token is a name of the directory, the target repository is a
local one, but "we'd avoid..." part seems to suggest that you
actually did this deliberately as a fix to some problem in the
current behaviour.  I am not however sure what it exactly is.
Could you care to elaborate the part after "we'd avoid..." to
clarify what the problem is, please?
