I can't pull from `git://` as I'm behind a firewall.It pretty much looks like the firewall doesn't let you directly access HTTP as well. You may need to use your proxy, and you (seem to) need to set the environment variable 'http_proxy="http://10.0.0.1:3128"' to point to your proxy. Google will take you from there, like http://rip747.wordpress.com/2008/09/12/git-clone-over-http-who-knew/
Strange. I suppose they reconfigured the firewall recently as I never had to set that before and I've tracked git through http for over a year. I ended up setting `http.proxy` in ~/.gitconfig. Thanks! -- In Christ, Timmy V. http://burningones.com/ http://five.sentenc.es/ - Spend less time on e-mail
