Were you using
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/sfr/linux-next.git or
http://www.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/sfr/linux-next.git ?  The
git one works for me and the http does as well now that I have updated
the server info (though I neglected to try it before doing the update).

Thanks for the heads up.
