The Bitbucket clone URL web fragment does not accommodate long protocol names

XMLWordPrintable

      Summary: The Bitbucket clone URL web fragment does not accommodate names longer than "HTTP", such as "HTTP+SSO".

      Background:

      In Kantega's Kerberos Authentication add-on for Bitbucket, we want to provide a custom clone URL where Kerberos SSO authentication is enabled for the URL /kerberos-scm/*
      We do NOT want to enable SSO for /scm/*, since that may break Git clients which do either not support SPNEGO at all, or are unable to fall back to basic auth for users with no Kerberos session.

      Problem:

      We want to name our custom clone method "HTTP+SOMETHING", where "SOMETHING" will be "SSO", "KERBEROS", or "SPNEGO".

      However, the Bitbucket select box / button where the clone URL is chosen does not handle names such as "HTTP+SSO".

      We would like the CSS/UX to be changed such that longer names such as HTTP+SOMETHING can be displayed without problems.

      See attached PNG (in Ecosystem JSD) for example where "HTTP+SSO" overruns from the selection box into the URL text field.

      We could of course use a short name ourselves such as just "SSO", but that would be harder to understand from the user side, and it would also be non-obvious that this is HTTP SSO.
