Ok, I tried a different approach that seemed to work: 1) I modified my global .gitconfig with lines like this (as per http://www.paraview.org/Wiki/Git/Trouble#Firewall_Blocks_Port_9418):
[url "http://paraview.org/ParaView.git";] insteadOf = git://paraview.org/ParaView.git [url "http://vtk.org/VTK.git";] insteadOf = git://vtk.org/VTK.git [url "http://paraview.org/VisItBridge.git";] insteadOf = git://paraview.org/VisItBridge.git [url "http://public.kitware.com/protobuf.git";] insteadOf = git://public.kitware.com/protobuf.git [url "http://paraview.org/QtTesting.git";] insteadOf = git://paraview.org/QtTesting.git 2) and then, ran git clone --recursive git://paraview.org/ParaView.git (as per http://www.paraview.org/Wiki/ParaView/Git/Download#Clone). It ultimately failed: zzz@zzz:~/code$ git clone --recursive git://paraview.org/ParaView.gitparaview4 Cloning into 'paraview4'... remote: Counting objects: 310247, done. remote: Compressing objects: 100% (78281/78281), done. remote: Total 310247 (delta 233314), reused 307876 (delta 231202) Receiving objects: 100% (310247/310247), 108.04 MiB | 155 KiB/s, done.
