I'm behind of a firewall on which the git port is not permitted, so I can only use http protocol. Unfortunately, I can't clone linus' git tree at all. I've tried

git version 1.4.4.2 git version 1.4.4.4 git version 1.5.0.1 git version 1.5.0.4 git version 1.5.0.6 git version 1.5.1.1,

none of them work. The following is the error. =================================== aubrey@Debian:~/upstream-kernel$ git --version git version 1.5.1.1

aubrey@Debian:~/upstream-kernel$ git-clone http://www.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git linux-2.6 ----snip---- walk b188ffe876382ecc009ceb4fe033fd6ec7ba4ede walk 0964ce24d091a1d3dc7f667e1b107ab77d4325e6 walk c264852726dde251a0c09ec22f61a9be8b0db68b walk 69903d6500c73af8329a5fba7153b0d50748981c walk b59a9504cb93db7fae31e60760725d48652a1fc3 error: Couldn't get http://www.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git/refs/tags/v2.6.11 for tags/v2.6.11 The requested URL returned error: 404 error: Could not interpret tags/v2.6.11 as something to pull ==================================

I also tried other mirrors like www1.kernel.org, www2.kernel.org, they don't work, either. I really appreciate any help, thanks!
