No, it is not a decision. However, using http for -git has some issues.

The double bars were causing troubles with the git: url. 
I've fixed it at gitweb.

The git URL is working fine:

$ git clone -l --bare /git/linux-2.6.git/ uvcvideo && cd uvcvideo && git remote add uvcvideo git://linuxtv.org/pinchartl/uvcvideo.git && git remote update
Initialized empty Git repository in /home/mchehab/tst/uvcvideo/

 * [new branch]      master     -> uvcvideo/master
 * [new branch]      uvcvideo   -> uvcvideo/uvcvideo

However, the html URL is currently broken:

$ rm -rf uvcvideo/ && git clone -l --bare /git/linux-2.6.git/ uvcvideo && cd uvcvideo && git remote add uvcvideo http://linuxtv.org/git/pinchartl/uvcvideo.git && git remote update 
Initialized empty Git repository in /home/mchehab/tst/uvcvideo/uvcvideo/
Updating uvcvideo

Probably, the rewrite rules at the server for http are incomplete. I'll see if I can fix it.

cheers,
Mauro.
