Hi Guido,

Thanks for your reply, and sorry for the delay.

I'm trying to clone the repository from
https://git.sigxcpu.org/cgit/git-buildpackage/ but it just seems
to hang (Cloning into 'git-buildpackage'...without any progress) . I also
tried to checkout only one branch.
I can visit the web interface without problems though.

Unfortunately this has no effect for me.
