Hi Marcel,

Chaning from kde:// to kde: opens a new problem, as apparently gits 
thinks the URL is relative and creates bad URLs:

(sid-kde-46)mike at operator:/c/temp/kde/trunk-svn/digikam-sc$ cat .gitslave
"kde:digikam" "core"
"kde:libkface" "extra/libkface"
"kde:libkmap" "extra/libkmap"
"kde:kipi-plugins" "extra/kipi-plugins"
(sid-kde-46)mike at operator:/c/temp/kde/trunk-svn/digikam-sc$ ./gits -v 
populate
Progress bar unavailable - install Term::ProgressBar 
(perl-Term-ProgressBar RPM)
gits: Cloning core
Running command: `(git config remote.origin.url) 2>&1`
Running command: `git clone  "kde:digikam/digikam" "core"`
Cloning into core...
fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly
Could not clone kde:digikam/digikam onto core

When I changed kde:digikam to kde://digikam (and did the same in 
~/.gitconfig), the checkout worked. So we either have to use the kde:// 
scheme or patch gits...
