Problem with git https URLs

[Germano Percossi]

Hi,

I noticed that for some repositories (e.g. cifs-2.6.git), the
https URLs point to stale versions of the repo.

If you do
git clone https://git.samba.org/sfrench/cifs-2.6.git
instead of
git clone git://git.samba.org/sfrench/cifs-2.6.git
you would end up with a very old version of the same repo.

Not sure if the https are deprecated (in that case, probably,
they should not accept connections) or there is a problem.

Regards,
Germano
