[~mlabuda] I agree on the sytling but not on the shortening. Without the shortening I ended up scrolling to discover the end, since that was usually what told me if I was using the right build config.
The shortening is done on purpose in the middle since the parts that allow you to identify a url usually are the beginning (host, openshift-server) and the end (the specific build resource). The only enhancement I see that makes sense imho is to measure how much room there is and adapt the shortening, showing the whole string if there's enough room. And then tooltip should show the full url

> When Importing an OpenShift 3 application via File - Import - Existing OpenShift Application, there is a wizard page to select a build config to import application repo. We should display repo name as styled text with style (grayed)  and it should not be shorten or at least not like this when there is missing a part in the middle of URL.
