Why fetching latest kernel sources is failing?

cg-clone http://www.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git

gives me the following error:

progress: 2 objects, 921 bytes
error: File 2a7e338ec2fc6aac461a11fe8049799e65639166 (http://www.kernel.org/pub/

cg-pull: objects pull failed

What's happening now? On the other local tree (I had already checked out a tree) 
I get other kind of problems, so I can't use it either.

Dear diary, on Wed, Jul 13, 2005 at 07:22:22PM CEST, I got a letter
where "Paolo \\'Blaisorblade\\' Giarrusso" [off-list ref] told me that...
cg-clone http://www.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git
Please use rsync, http is broken for the time being and not trivially
fixable (patches pending, though).
