No, that command "git clone --depth 365 git://git.sv.gnu.org/gnulib gnulib" has not been tried before in this environment, so no actual certainty it should work. However, what confuses is that other git commands directly to github that I thought were "git://" forms work just fine, e.g. "git clone [email protected]:tshinnic/debugfonts.git", fetches, pushes, etc. I'll chalk it up to network nits and not worry the bootstrap info has bit-rotted - thanks for the reality checking. (I'm in the bowels of a hospital network today, so bugs/germs/ills of all sorts are believable) On Tue, Jul 15, 2014 at 1:56 PM, Frank Trampe <[email protected]> wrote: > The first command works fine for me.
