I think it is useless, sincerly, as each package that has a Git repo on
AUR4 can be cloned using the URL:

ssh+git://aur@aur4.archlinux.org/PACKAGE.git/

where PACKAGE is the name of the package you're looking for.

E.g 'foo' -> ssh+git://aur@aur4.archlinux.org/foo.git/

Also, you can use HTTPS instead of SSH for cloning, you would have:

https://aur4.archlinux.org/PACKAGE.git

You should use this last option if you're not one of the package
maintainers.
