Ive changed .git/config thusly: $ diff config .git/config 7c7 < url = git://orgmode.org/org-mode.git --- > url = https://code.orgmode.org/bzg/org-mode.git As best as I can see its working! Questions 1. Is this right? 2. This change should probably go up on the main web-page somewhere since the mailing list hides mail-addresses. So we can make out that something needs change but not exactly what!
