On a freshly dd'ed piCorePlayer 5.0.0, with the -compiletc.tcz- and
-git.tcz- extensions installed, the -git- command is unable to download
-http:- or -https:- URLs. It is able to download -git:- URLs.
Code:
--------------------
tc@piCorePlayer:~$ rm -rf .emacs.d/
tc@piCorePlayer:~$ git clone http://github.com/hartzell/.emacs.d
Cloning into '.emacs.d'...
fatal: unable to find remote helper for 'http'
tc@piCorePlayer:~$ git clone https://github.com/hartzell/.emacs.d
Cloning into '.emacs.d'...
fatal: unable to find remote helper for 'https'
tc@piCorePlayer:~$ git clone git://github.com/hartzell/.emacs.d
Cloning into '.emacs.d'...

tc@piCorePlayer:~$
--------------------
The problem persists if/after I install the -curl-dev.tcz- extension.
The -git-remote-http- and -git-remote-https- helpers seem to be missing
Code:
--------------------
tc@piCorePlayer:~$ sudo find /usr | grep git | grep remote
/usr/local/libexec/git-core/git-remote-testsvn
/usr/local/libexec/git-core/git-remote-fd
/usr/local/libexec/git-core/git-remote-ext
/usr/local/libexec/git-core/git-remote
/usr/local/libexec/git-core/git-parse-remote
/usr/local/libexec/git-core/git-ls-remote
--------------------
'This stackoverflow post'
(https://stackoverflow.com/questions/8329485/unable-to-find-remote-helper-for-https-during-git-clone)
suggests that if the curl libraries (or perhaps openssh, or ...) are
missing when git it built, these helpers are not built.
