Thanks all.  Strange enough, git pull from repo.or.cz/r/org-mode.git
started working fine once again.

But I cannot yet clone from  http://orgmode.org/org-mode.git. I had tried
the same earlier with the same result.. the clone will get stuck at
"Fetching origin".
My current git version is 2.6.0.rc0.24.gec371ff

In any case, sorry for the noise. Some intermittent issue was failing the
git pull from the repo.or.cz domain and it is working fine once again.
