Either bower or GitHub is broken?

Dor1s commented 4 years ago

Output of bower -v && npm -v && node -v:

$ bower -v && npm -v && node -v
1.8.8
2.15.9
v4.5.0

Additional environment details (proxy, private registry, etc.):

Nope

Steps to reproduce the issue:

1.

$ cat bower.json 
{
  "name": "asd",
  "dependencies": {
    "iron-ajax": "PolymerElements/iron-ajax^2.0.0"
  },
  "resolutions": {
    "iron-ajax": "^2.0.0"
  }
}

2.

$ bower install
bower iron-ajax#*           not-cached https://github.com/PolymerElements/iron-ajax^2.0.0.git#*
bower iron-ajax#*              resolve https://github.com/PolymerElements/iron-ajax^2.0.0.git#*
bower iron-ajax#*              ECMDERR Failed to execute "git ls-remote --tags --heads https://github.com/PolymerElements/iron-ajax^2.0.0.git", exit code of #128 fatal: unable to access 'https://github.com/PolymerElements/iron-ajax^2.0.0.git/': The requested URL returned error: 400

Additional error details:
fatal: unable to access 'https://github.com/PolymerElements/iron-ajax^2.0.0.git/': The requested URL returned error: 400

Describe the results you received:

This used to work, I believe, but fails when tries to access GitHub.

Describe the results you expected:

No errors.

Additional information:

I've tried manually requesting that URL and got the following:

That's why I suspect either bower uses a wrong URL or GitHub returns 404 when it shouldn't.

It should be PolymerElements/iron-ajax#^2.0.0, not PolymerElements/iron-ajax^2.0.0
