Yes, in the past few months, the KDESDK module have been broken down
into individual applications. From now on, every application have to
be cloned individually. This have many advantages over the old model,
principally in the way git handle branches.

You can add this to your bashrc / zshrc:
function kde-git {
 git clone git://anongit.kde.org/$1
}

To add the kde-git command. Example: "kde-git umbrello". Will clone
umbrello and "kde-git kate" will fetch kate
