if you look on
scm.trinitydesktop.org and select a repository,
underneath it will give you some info like this:
Name: tde-packaging
Type: Git (git)
Contact: kb9vqf(a)pearsoncomputing.net
Url:
http://scm.trinitydesktop.org/scm/git/tde-packaging
Checkout: git clone
http://scm.trinitydesktop.org/scm/git/tde-packaging
use the checkout url :-)
Thanks Calvin!

I cannot believe the only issue that kept it from working the first time was
the trailing '/'! Compare:
Unsuccessful:
git clone
http://drankin@scm.trinitydesktop.org/scm/git/tde-packaging/
Successful:
git clone
http://drankin@scm.trinitydesktop.org/scm/git/tde-packaging
So is there no way to clone 'arch' alone, you have to pull the whole
tde-packaging tree? The size isn't that much, but the bandwidth is very slow.
Being able to clone a single distro's build scripts would eliminate over 50% of
the demand on tde-packaging cloning. Eg:
09:03 nirvana:~/tdenew/git/tde-packaging> for i in */; do echo " $i"; du
-hcs
$i; done
