"git clone http://a:b@donatello.pri.univie.ac.at/repositories/0/Data/" is not working

also "git clone http://a@donatello.pri.univie.ac.at/repositories/0/Data/" is not asking for password. is it supposed to?

it is working without a:b@ part, but ~/.netrc instead
:-(, is it possible without .netrc
git version 1.5.4.3
thanks, regards
Jürgen
