Description

I'm trying to create a subtree out of another keybase repository:

$ git subtree add --prefix foobar keybase://team/foobar/foo master
Initializing Keybase... done.
Syncing with Keybase... done.
git-remote-keybase error: (1) malformed refspec, separators are wrong

See log id 421c8b48633254b58911a21c

Research direction

Reproduce the reported git subtree add --prefix foobar keybase://team/foobar/foo master command and inspect the git-remote-keybase handling of its refspec. Use log id 421c8b48633254b58911a21c to investigate the malformed-refspec error; done means a subtree can be created between Keybase repositories without that error.
