245 - Provide info on how to checkout when it shows repo urls

If you see on http://gitorious.org/projects/gitorious/repos/mainline , it shows the repository urls with a link for "More info...", which provides details on how to check out. I think having a similar setup, showing the unix commands and possibly a link to a tortoise svn knowledge base page (varying based on repository type, of course) would be useful.

Ok, after tripping for the Nth time over this, I'm also in favour of this ticket, but with a very specific feature request: it should show the entire command required to clone the repo directly into the addon directory, including the target directory name. For example
git clone git://git.curseforge.net/wow/mangler/mainline.git Mangler

The repository urls should also be hyperlinks like how GitHub does it so that they can be easily copied with just a right click->copy link location. When clicked though it has a javascript popup with the command to copy and paste to clone/checkout the repo.
