Is it possible these people are on ridiculous corporate networks that only permit HTTP traffic (via a proxy) and allow no other outgoing connections beyond their network? I have been on one of these before, http was the only way I could checkout sources (from Subversion at the time). If this is the case, git being awesome as it is, perhaps someone could set up a remote that offers http cloning that updates once a day or so. This would let people clone a repo, and still submit their work via format-patch etc. --danni -- Danielle Madeley Software Developer, Collabora Ltd.
