get_source.sh from ssh://host//path

[Wang Weijun]

It looks like the problem is at

common/bin/hgforest.sh:
   222	          pull_newrepo="`echo ${pull_base}/${i} | sed -e 's@\([^:]/\)//*@\1 at g'`"

It tries to substitute all repeated slashes into one unless it's after a colon.

*Mike*: Is that line really useful or just a beautifier?
