What odd character do you have there before the 'git://' and why?

It cuts-and-pastes into some whitespace that isn't space, and that the 
shell thus makes part of that word when parsing. It seems to be U+FEFF, 
which is "zero-width non-break space", but what the heck is the point of 
that kind of garbage in email?

Is this some new way for Evolution to screw up?
