Matt,

Thanks very much for the pointer. However, I cannot clone it either
through http or through git:

$ socksify git clone git://repo.or.cz/w/emacs.git
Initialized empty Git repository in /home/nick/src/emacs/emacs.repo/emacs/.git/cd 
fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly

$ rm -rf emacs

$ git clone http://repo.or.cz/w/emacs.git
Initialized empty Git repository in /home/nick/src/emacs/emacs.repo/emacs/.git/
warning: remote HEAD refers to nonexistent ref, unable to checkout.

This was at work through a SOCKS proxy - I'll try again from home without a proxy,
but in the meantime, can you check whether it works for you?

Thanks,
Nick
