# Smart Git URL Parsing Specification

## Requirements

### Functional Requirements

1. **URL Detection**: Detect when a provided URL is a browser URL rather than a git clone URL
2. **URL Extraction**: Extract the base repository URL from browser URLs
3. **User Confirmation**: Show extracted URL to user and ask for confirmation
4. **Flexible Input**: Allow users to proceed with original URL if they prefer
5. **Multiple Hosts**: Support GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, and generic git hosts

### Non-Functional Requirements

1. **Performance**: URL parsing should be instant (< 100ms)
2. **Accuracy**: Should correctly identify 95%+ of browser URLs
3. **User Experience**: Clear, helpful messages without technical jargon
4. **Backward Compatibility**: Existing valid git URLs should continue to work

## API Specification

### POST /git-repositories/parse-url
Parse a URL and determine if it's a valid clone URL or needs correction.

**Request Body:**
```json
{
  "url": "https://github.com/user/repo/tree/main"
}
```

**Response 200:**
```json
{
  "original_url": "https://github.com/user/repo/tree/main",
  "base_url": "https://github.com/user/repo.git",
  "is_valid_clone_url": false,
  "needs_parsing": true,
  "host": "github.com",
  "message": "This URL contains a branch path. The repository URL is: https://github.com/user/repo.git"
}
```

**Response 200 (already valid):**
```json
{
  "original_url": "https://github.com/user/repo.git",
  "base_url": "https://github.com/user/repo.git",
  "is_valid_clone_url": true,
  "needs_parsing": false,
  "host": "github.com",
  "message": "Valid git repository URL"
}
```

### Enhanced POST /projects/{project_id}/repositories
Enhanced to return suggestions when URL needs parsing.

**New 422 Response:**
```json
{
  "detail": "The provided URL appears to be a browser URL, not a git clone URL",
  "suggested_url": "https://github.com/user/repo.git",
  "original_url": "https://github.com/user/repo/tree/main",
  "error_code": "URL_NEEDS_PARSING"
}
```

**Request Body (with force flag):**
```json
{
  "name": "my-repo",
  "remote_url": "https://github.com/user/repo/tree/main",
  "is_mirror": false,
  "force_original_url": true
}
```

## Data Model

### URLParseResult
```python
class URLParseResult:
    original_url: str
    base_url: str | None
    is_valid_clone_url: bool
    needs_parsing: bool
    host: str | None
    message: str
    error_code: str | None
```

## URL Parsing Rules

### Supported Hosts
- github.com
- gitlab.com  
- bitbucket.org
- Any custom domain with git hosting

### GitHub URL Patterns
```
https://github.com/{owner}/{repo} → valid
https://github.com/{owner}/{repo}.git → valid
https://github.com/{owner}/{repo}/tree/{branch} → extract base
https://github.com/{owner}/{repo}/blob/{branch}/{path} → extract base
https://github.com/{owner}/{repo}/pull/{number} → extract base
https://github.com/{owner}/{repo}/issues/{number} → extract base
https://github.com/{owner}/{repo}/actions → extract base
```

### GitLab URL Patterns
```
https://gitlab.com/{owner}/{repo} → valid
https://gitlab.com/{owner}/{repo}.git → valid
https://gitlab.com/{owner}/{repo}/-/tree/{branch} → extract base
https://gitlab.com/{owner}/{repo}/-/blob/{branch}/{path} → extract base
https://gitlab.com/{owner}/{repo}/-/merge_requests/{number} → extract base
```

### Bitbucket URL Patterns
```
https://bitbucket.org/{owner}/{repo} → valid
https://bitbucket.org/{owner}/{repo}.git → valid
https://bitbucket.org/{owner}/{repo}/src/{branch} → extract base
```

### Extraction Algorithm
1. Parse URL components (scheme, netloc, path, query)
2. Remove query parameters entirely
3. Split path by `/`
4. Remove trailing segments that indicate non-repo paths:
   - `tree/*`, `blob/*`, `pull/*`, `issues/*`, `actions`
   - `-/tree/*`, `-/blob/*`, `-/merge_requests/*`
   - `src/*`
5. Reconstruct URL with remaining path
6. Add `.git` suffix if missing (for HTTPS URLs)
7. Return extracted URL

## Frontend Specification

### URL Input Component
- Input field for repository URL
- Real-time validation (debounced 300ms)
- Visual indicators:
  - 🟢 Green border: Valid git URL
  - 🟡 Yellow border: Browser URL detected, suggestion shown
  - 🔴 Red border: Invalid/malformed URL
- Inline suggestion banner below input:
  ```
  ⚠️ This looks like a browser URL
  Suggested: https://github.com/user/repo.git
  [Use Suggested] [Keep Original]
  ```

### Confirmation Dialog
Shown when backend returns 422 with suggestion:
```
┌─────────────────────────────────────┐
│ URL Correction Suggestion            │
├─────────────────────────────────────┤
│                                      │
│ The URL you entered appears to be   │
│ a browser URL, not a git clone URL. │
│                                      │
│ Original:                            │
│ https://github.com/user/repo/tree/main│
│                                      │
│ Suggested repository URL:            │
│ https://github.com/user/repo.git     │
│                                      │
│ [Use Suggested URL]  [Use Original] │
│ [Cancel]                            │
└─────────────────────────────────────┘
```

## Error Codes

| Error Code | Description | User Message |
|------------|-------------|--------------|
| URL_NEEDS_PARSING | Browser URL detected | "This looks like a browser URL. Did you mean: {suggested_url}?" |
| INVALID_URL | Malformed URL | "Please enter a valid URL" |
| UNSUPPORTED_HOST | Unknown git host | "This git host is not supported" |
| CLONE_FAILED | Git clone failed | "Failed to clone repository: {error}" |
| AUTH_REQUIRED | Private repo, need auth | "This repository requires authentication" |

## Testing Strategy

### Unit Tests (URL Parsing)
- Test all GitHub URL patterns
- Test all GitLab URL patterns  
- Test all Bitbucket URL patterns
- Test valid URLs pass through unchanged
- Test edge cases (subgroups, nested paths, etc.)

### Integration Tests
- Test parse-url endpoint with various URLs
- Test repository creation with browser URL (should suggest correction)
- Test repository creation with force flag
- Test clone operation with corrected URL

### Frontend Tests
- Test URL input validation states
- Test suggestion banner display
- Test confirmation dialog flow
- Test acceptance/rejection of suggestions
