Re: [Mono-dev] Prefer HTTPS over git:
Exactly. We are not going to change this, but luckily the solution provided should work for you.

Re: [Mono-dev] Prefer HTTPS over git:
Since Git 1.6.6, HTTP(S) remotes are as efficient as the git/SSH protocols. However, SSH keys are more convenient and secure for automatic authentication than HTTPS auth. As far as I know, the only way to set up automatic authentication with git over HTTPS is to store the username and password in cleartext in ~/.netrc, which for many users is not acceptable.

Re: [Mono-dev] Prefer HTTPS over git:
Hi Etienne, Thanks for your reply, it is certainly one solution employable by each Git user. But I'm suggesting to change the default behavior for everyone, believing there are zero cons for it. // If only I could send a patch w/o CLA signed by my employer's lawyer!

[Mono-dev] Prefer HTTPS over git:
Hi Mono developers, Could you change .gitmodule so that the sub-modules are fetched with HTTPS rather than the git: protocol? I believe the former has a higher chance to pass through firewalls than the latter.
