Bzr user here.  May be try one of these?

,---- https://savannah.gnu.org/git/?group=emacs
| Anonymous checkout:
| 
|         git clone git://git.savannah.gnu.org/emacs.git
`----

,----  http://savannah.gnu.org/maintenance/UsingGit
| URL-s summary:
| 
|     git://git.sv.gnu.org/myproject.git - git lightweight protocol (read-only 
access)
|     ssh://git.sv.gnu.org/srv/git/myproject.git - developer access using SSH
|     http://git.sv.gnu.org/r/myproject.git - slow dumb protocol, http-based, 
for use behind fascist firewalls
| 
| Web browser: http://git.sv.gnu.org/gitweb/
| 
| If you use ssh-based access, please verify the host keys first at
| SshAccess (git.sv.gnu.org is the same host as cvs.sv.gnu.org).
| 
| Note: there is at most a 1/2h delay between Git activation in the web
| front-end, and its creation on the system.  Basic commands
| 
|     Checkout:
| 
|     git clone git://git.sv.gnu.org/project.git
| 
|     Firewall checkout: if you're behind a outgoing-traffic-filtering 
firewall, you can use Git's "dumb protocol" via HTTP - note that this is 
SLOWER, both for you and Savannah. Avoid if possible, and please tell your 
local sysadmin to allow outgoing git traffic (port 9418):
| 
|     git clone http://git.savannah.gnu.org/r/project.git
| 
|     Note: we enabled git-http-backend (a CGI script) to speed up HTTP 
cloning, but this is still not the recommended protocol.
| 
|     Project member checkout: if you want to be able to push your changes back 
into the repository on savannah:
| 
|     git clone lo...@git.sv.gnu.org:/srv/git/project.git
