No idea what you're trying to say, but there's no need to use ftp to download
the files from above.  Git clone over http would work fine if the repository
was created properly.  And even though it's not set up properly in this case,
it's pretty easy to grab over http _anyway_ with something like:

$ mkdir radeonhd
$ cd radeonhd
$ git init
$ lftp -e "mirror . .git" \
    http://anongit.freedesktop.org/git/xorg/driver/xf86-video-radeonhd
$ git checkout

Regards,
Sean
