Hey Christopher, That's exactly the post I was looking for, thanks!
The reason why I'm trying to avoid a public repository is because the application needs to compile inside a client's network and they have a network policy which only allows port 80. I am (perhaps incorrectly) assuming that connections to pubilc repositories go through some port other than 80 though. Is my assumption correct?
