It is also possible to use 'git config' to set up rewrite rules; if you can't use git to access a git:// repo, but CAN use it to access an http[s]:// repo, then setting up: [url "http://server-of-http-clone/...";] insteadof = git://git.qemu-project.org/ I haven't personally tried it for git (it's been a while since I've been a machine where I had to use rewriting rules to get past inability to access git://), but have used the trick in other projects in the past. I'm also fairly certain we have at least a github clone of all qemu projects involved in qemu submodules, so that you can rewrite all of your URLs to point to the github http:// service. -- Eric Blake, Principal Software Engineer Red Hat, Inc. +1-919-301-3266 Virtualization: qemu.org | libvirt.org
