Ah, gotcha. The git:// protocol is used as read-only and works only on *public* projects. You'll need to use the git@ syntax for private projects.
However, if your'e just trying to merge in pull requests, we've recently added instructions on the pull request page to help you out with that action (and with a much smaller set of commands than is currently listed on the help page). The instructions use the HTTP urls which can be used for both public and private repositories.
