Package: git
Version: 1:1.7.1-1.1
Severity: important

When I try to clone a public repository, such as (but certainly not limited to) 
the gdm one 

$ git --version                    
git version 1.7.1
$ git clone git://git.gnome.org/gdm
Initialized empty Git repository in /tmp/gdm/.git/

Warning: Permanently added 'git.gnome.org,209.132.180.173' (RSA) to the list of

If I run this on a fedora box, I get

$ git --version

It really looks like the Debian version is invoking the ssh backend despite 
being explicitly
told to use the git protocol.
