Hello gnulib maintainers,
It has come to the attention of Octave users that cloning the gnulib
repository fails for some users, possibly because of firewall issues.
The command suggested here:
http://www.gnu.org/software/gnulib/
results in a connection reset on the server side of things:
[gnulib]$ git clone git://git.savannah.gnu.org/gnulib.git
Cloning into gnulib...
fatal: read error: Connection reset by peer
Someone figured out that the following address works without reset:
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/r/gnulib.git
(See http://www.gnu.org/software/octave/get-involved.html) Please
consider resolving firewall access to the server (if that is possible)
or providing a working repository address on the gnulib webpage. If the
latter, we will change the Octave sub-repository address accordingly.
Thank you,
Dan
