The four possible fetch URLs are also listed on the http://repo.or.cz/w/git/jrn.git page: git://repo.or.cz/git/jrn.git http://repo.or.cz/r/git/jrn.git ssh://repo.or.cz/srv/git/git/jrn.git https://repo.or.cz/r/git/jrn.git As Jonathan has pointed out, fetching over https may require some additional setup as explained above [1]. Fetching using ssh can be accomplished without needing to create a user account by using the "mob" user as in the URL "ssh://mob@repo.or.cz/srv/git/git/jrn.git ". The git: and http: URLs should work as-is for fetching.
