Good question Peter, but I tried to git clone the latest documentation 
repo for a red pitaya VNA I use to tune AM broadcast towers, drawing the 
smith charts the FCC wants at license renewal, and was repeatadly 
blocked by the new style login. The same email addy, and passwd the 
browser prefs keeps on this machine, is still wrong from another machine 
on my home net.

To get this in hard copy:

<https://redpitaya.readthedocs.io/en/latest/appsFeatures/applications/vna/appVNA.html#linux-users-only>

Which has a link to clone the repo that made that web page. I've tried to 
print it from the browser but its poorly composed and the browsers 
printer does not line wrap, losing the longer lines it should wrap.

But I don't have a problem doing git pulls from linuxcnc master or 
master-gtk3 as I pull both and build it from the git repo about half the 
time right on the pi. Takes the pi a bit over an hour to make all the 
debs and install them.
