Could the regex matching be extended to allow trailing slash(es) in urls? I.e. allow https://github.com/r-lib/pkgdepends/ as a valid url.
The main motivation is that pkgdown github link url appends a trailing slash, and thus when I copy-paste the url to pak I need to remove this trailing slash for it to work.
pak::pak("https://github.com/r-lib/pkgdepends/")

#> ! ! error in pak subprocess
