OTOH, atm I'm not behind a firewall and it's conceivable that your IT department has shut off access to orgmode somehow. I'd talk to them about it. Also, if they provide a socks proxy, you might be able to clone over git using socksify or tsocks and avoid the pain of http. Nick PS BTW, I know that git gc is recommended on local repos, but is that applicable to the repo on orgmode.org? and would that help with the cloning time? 2.5 mins seems long to me.
