I see the same.  I can't say I've tried this before as "[email protected]:..." is using SSH to pull,
which isn't usual due to speed.  Were you trying for "git://github.com/" which is the git native protocol?
I usually use http for checkouts.

Also, as this is as good a point as any.  My usual git configuration to mangle remote
urls so that I can clone via http and automatically push via ssh.
