I must admit, I wasn'tt very happy with that new lintian warning.
At least in the past, "git fetch" over HTTP(S) was not recommended due
to massiv performance penalties over the native git protocol.
But having read
https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Git-on-the-Server-The-Protocols#The-HTTP-Protocols
since Git 1.6.6 there seem to be two different ways to do git over
HTTP.
Do we know which way Alioth uses? If it uses the new/smart way, I
think that change is ok. Otherwise, I'd not recommend it.
