Hi I'm just getting into Julia. It seems that, out of the box, Pkg is dependent on being able to call 'git clone git://blah' type addresses. For some reason my network doesn't support that.
INFO: Cloning cache of ArrayViews from git://github.com/JuliaLang/ArrayViews.jl.git fatal: unable to connect to github.com: github.com[0: 192.30.252.130]: errno=No route to host While waiting for support I thought I would dig around. It seems I can install packages by 'git clone https://blah' through Pkg.add("https://blah";). Of course if the package has dependencies it throws up errors for the same reason. TL,DR; It would be nice if Pkg did a try except on the url prefix using https://. Cheers Matthew Pearce
