Created attachment 96112 [details] screenshot for the https url In NetBeans 6.8, choose Team > Merucrial > Clone Other then enter for example https://jphototagger.googlecode.com/hg/ as URL. In the line below the input field appears: https://[DOMAIN%5C]hostname/repository_path replace the URL by some chars (like "sfsdf") some help-text appears below the input line. The examples for http and https also show "[DOMAIN%5C]" (attached in screenshots). Looks like a bug for me.
Created attachment 96113 [details] screenshot for second case with jsut some random chars as URL input
