I ran into a situation where I have to test how Pacote handles git shorthands from hosted-git-info, but I didn't want to ping GitHub to run my tests. I set up a git daemon and http server on localhost easily enough, but it was still necessary to make it a 'real' HostedGit for the purposes of npm-package-arg, and the : with port number was getting URL encoded. This shows an example of doing this hack/test workaround, and fixes the encoding issue. It would be interesting to perhaps support GitHub Enterprise or on-prem GitLab by letting users specify a prefix and format for hosted git info in their npm configs, and then clone the definition with a different domain name.
