HTTP read only access to git repositories available
All of the Yocto Project hosted git repositories can be accessed via the http protocol on port 80. This method uses the smart http backend and it is as fast as access via the git protocol. Connecting via http will help users behind a proxy clone and update repositories with minimal configuration.
Configure git to use your http proxy by setting the http_proxy environment variable or by running 'git config http.proxy [proxy_url]'.
URLs are listed at the bottom of cgit project pages after the clone heading. Visit http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/poky/ for an example. They follow the pattern
http://git.yoctoproject.org/git/[repo_path].
