It looks like the jejb scsi-misc archive might not have been configured properly for http transfers. There's a script below which just uses git commands (not cogito) and the native git protocol which tests out okay here.
A few comments though:
- Apparently the scsi misc tree you want is actually under "jejb" rather than "marcelo" which you had in your script.
- It's better to use the native git protocol when possible (well, the benefits are less on initial clone, but it's still a good practice)
- You're causing a lot of unnecessary traffic for kernel.org by cloning a fresh copy of all these trees, it would be much better to clone just _once_ and then simply "git pull" in any updates.
- Two of the trees you're cloning are very close in content to each other (linux-2.6 & scsi-misc-2.6) so you can use the git "--reference" option to share local objects saving disk space (and reducing bandwidth needs even further)
Cheers, Sean
