Yes, but in some companies, the policy is to acces the "internet" only
through http/https proxies. Some even disallow the 'CONNECT' command to
anything else but http/https/ftp, and do not offer socks proxies. These
rule out anything but plain http/ftp.

So, having buildroot's git available through http would be nice, IMHO.
