+### Please describe the problem.
+
+ref: [datalad#1713](https://github.com/datalad/datalad/issues/1713#issuecomment-368091458) so it seems to work when origin remote on http, but fails (as demoed below) for local paths (and ssh)
+
+### What steps will reproduce the problem?
+
+It works correctly in indirect mode (commands below are the same besides switching to direct mode in the clone, sorry for "sudo rm" but that was the fast non-datalad method to remove them ;) )
