Update regarding the http method. If you want to use http, make sure to use Git 1.6.6 or newer and use: git clone http://git.gnome.org/browse/[project]
NOTICE: Preferred methods are still git: git clone git://git.gnome.org/[project] or (if you have commit access): git clone ssh://[login@]git.gnome.org/git/[project] For more background information on why the smart http is so much faster than the previous http method: http://progit.org/2010/03/04/smart-http.html Brief explanation: Two processes are started instead of 10.000+ cgit processes. As a result, cloning is *much* faster than before plus it doesn't affect our server. If you want to setup smart http on your own server: http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/git-http-backend.html http://mail.gnome.org/archives/desktop-devel-list/2011-February/msg00109.html http://mail.gnome.org/archives/desktop-devel-list/2011-February/msg00118.html I've updated the relevant documentation with the new method.
