Register-PSRepository - Invalid SourceLocation path for PS repository hosted on Artifactory #86

Prerequisites

• Write a descriptive title.
• Make sure you are able to repro it on the latest version
• Search the existing issues.

Steps to reproduce

In version 2.2.6 Register-PSRepository adds unnecessary and invalid '/api/v2' at the end of SourceLocation when used with Artifactory hosted repository. My guess is that Artifactory returns 405 also for invalid repository paths.

The cause is a change in PowerShellGet’s URL validation:

• Register-PSRepository probes the URL with /api/v2/ appended before trying the original.
• Version 2.2.5 rejected HTTP 405 Method Not Allowed and falls back to the original URL.
• Version 2.2.6 accepts 405, so it registers the incorrect appended URL.

Any workaround (other than downgrade to 2.2.5)?
