This is somewhat off-topic, but I just ran into an issue with GitHub, and I am not sure how to handle it.
I use this command to “git” the sage tree when Volker announces a new one: git clone git://github.com/sagemath/sage.git I now get an immediate response: fatal: remote error: The unauthenticated git protocol on port 9418 is no longer supported. Please see https://github.blog/2021-09-01-improving-git-protocol-security-github/ for more information. I looked at the web page mentioned, and, if I understand what is described (not entirely clear), I just need to replace “git:” with “https:”. But the next paragraph mentions that they have removed support for passwords over HTTPS. So I’m a bit confused. Was this discussed on Sage lists? Thanks for pointers or hints! Justin PS: the change happened in the last day or so; I had cloned the tree a day or two ago on other systems without problems -- Justin C.
