Summary0005189: live build package and other repos unavailable on git.kali.org
Description

My team regularly uses the live build process to generate custom builds for projects, and we found yesterday that attempting a live build immediately resulted in a failure.

We were tracking the upstream issue via https://bugs.kali.org/view.php?id=5186 that was reported yesterday, but it was closed today as resolved and issue still seems present:

root@rock:/tmp# date; git clone -v git://git.kali.org/live-build-config.git build
Fri Jan 4 08:20:11 CST 2019
Cloning into 'build'...
fatal: repository 'https://git.kali.org/live-build-config.git/' not found

Was the fix tested or am I missing something obvious?

Steps To Reproduce

Attempt to clone the live-build-config repo from git.kali.org:

git clone -v git://git.kali.org/live-build-config.git build

Bah, tested from a separate machine and it worked. Not sure what's going on from the machine I originally tested from, but feel free to disregard.

Look into what you wrote, in one case you used a "https" URL (which doesn't work) and in the other case a git:// URL (which works). Can you double check that you used the correct URL?

git clone git://git.kali.org/live-build-config.git
