That's because your university punched a hole through the firewall for yet another protocol - git. And presumably because some people at your university need the git protocol to manipulate code and content on github. Everyone has access to http/https unless they live a vacuum - but not everyone has access to git. So why use git to distribute source code? We can't use git protocol through our firewall either - at least not until pigs fly. I've never used the build script - I check out the source via http and build it with my own script. So I don't have any trouble with gnuradio source. But I do have trouble with osmocom source on github using http because the recursive clone links back to the osmocom web site which doesn't support git tunneled in http!
