Are you perhaps using an http proxy? If so, try to disable it.


No, no proxy.  But I believe this is a bug in the git-core package in debian 
etch (aka stable). I have run the git-core command on several machines at 
work and it had that same problem. I ran it on my machine at home and it 
worked. I started investigating network issues but then it occured to me 
that I'm running debian sid at home and etch at work. I upgraded a machine 
to sid, tried the git-clone, and it worked.

So it's debian etch, not my network.
