problem using git to checkout xf86-video-intel

[Carlos Eduardo Rodrigues Diógenes]

Hi,

I'm behind a proxy and I export the http_proxy variable and use the
following command to checkout xf86-video-intel:

git clone http://git.freedesktop.org/git/xorg/driver/xf86-video-intel
<== I have to substitute the git:// by http://, because without it I was
getting the following message: fatal: unable to connect a socket
(Connection refused)

The xf86-video-intel dir come with some informations in the .git dir,
but the .git dir was the only thing in the direcory.

There is something that I'm doing wrong. I follow the instruction in
http://wiki.x.org/wiki/IntelGraphicsDriver and can't realize where I'm
get wrong.

Thanks.
