[vlc-devel] unable to git clone using http

[Roger Pack]

Hi all.  This may be old news, but thought I'd point it out.

This page
http://git.videolan.org/

says "you can also use http..."

however when I attempt it, I get this:


C:\dev\ruby\downloads>git clone http://git.videolan.org/git/vlmc
Initialized empty Git repository in C:/dev/ruby/downloads/vlmc/.git/
fatal: http://git.videolan.org/git/vlmc/info/refs not found: did you
run git update-server-info on the server?

git version 1.7.0.2.msysgit.0

Any thoughts there?
(As a side, it might be worth maintaining an official clone on
github--it has working http et al, as well as easy searchability et
al).
Thanks!
