Hello Bastien,

The server does seem to support HTTP for pulling, however it is very slow. I
have to use http from work because the firewall blocks the git:// protocol.
Times on my prompt are DST (-0400).

[10:22:25] ~/test$ git clone http://orgmode.org/org-mode.git
Cloning into org-mode...
[10:35:43] ~/test$ cd org-mode/
[10:36:46] ~/test/org-mode$ git log -1

http:// does work for cloning and pulling from the main Repo, however
there's nothing to indicate that anything is happening until the task is
complete.

Regards,

Jonathan
