To make things merrier, when you set procotol to https, you don't need anything of the cruft from before: no ssh keys, no setting up an account, setting git username etc. You get read-only access to all public github:// and bitbucket:// repos with no additional setup.
The con is the “read-only” - you cannot (easily) develop / contribute to them. But if your only concern is to be able to load dependencies, setting protocol to https is easiest way to go.
