Unable to add a Git Repository with file:// URL

[agrare]

The error message on the URL field indicates that file:// is a valid protocol but when I try to pass a file:///path/to/repo it fails.

But creating it via rails c works and sync successfully
ManageIQ::Providers::Workflows::AutomationManager::ConfigurationScriptSource.create!(:name => "adam-workflows", :scm_url => "file:///home/grare/adam/src/manageiq/adam-workflows")

Looks like we have a custom url validator: https://github.com/ManageIQ/manageiq-ui-classic/blob/master/app/javascript/components/workflow-repository-form/helpers.jsx

    {
      component: componentTypes.TEXT_FIELD,
      label: __('URL'),
      maxLength: 128,
      id: 'scm_url',
      name: 'scm_url',
      isRequired: true,
      validate: [
        (value) => (customUrlValidator(value)
          ? undefined
          // eslint-disable-next-line max-len
          : 'URL must include a protocol (http://, https:// or file://) with path or be a valid SSH path (user@server:path or ssh://user@address:port/path)'),
      ],
    },

I kinda want file for development, but not for production (I can't think of a production use case). @jeffibm Is that possible?

[Fryguy]

This happens on any form that has repository create/edit (workflows, ansible, etc).
