Using the git:// protocol is generally more efficient than http:// because you are talking to a smart server on the other end that can just send the packs you need for your fetch operation. http:// is a dumb protocol (in the sense that there is no program on the other end that knows anything about the git repository) so you end up transferring more data than you really need to.
