Re: GIT repo (connection refused)

Check if you are behind a firewall that blocks the git protocol on port
9418. The http version is there for people who are behind such a
firewall.

That being said, the http version should be documented on the git page,
rather than just on the mailing list at
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.alsa.devel/53959/focus=54060
(Nudge to Jaroslav)

And, yes, you can base a patch off the http repository.
