if you have :22 outbound access you could try git+ssh on git.kernel.org. I guess you don't have :22 outbound open, do you? - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
