I humbly suggest that rakudobrew, or perhaps rakudo Configure.pl, edit
.gitmodules before running MoarVM Configure.pl if passed a different git
protocol than https://.
That is probably a better solution than trying to find a
lowest-common-denominator protocol which is supported everywhere, since it
clearly won't be. :-)
(For instance, at $institute, git:// protocol is blocked).

Bart
