[fdo] git read-only access via ssl (https)

Hello.
I have gentoo live ebuild for libtsm, which is hosted at
www.freedesktop.org:
https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/kmscon/libtsm/
https://cgit.freedesktop.org/~dvdhrm/libtsm

Both project and gitweb pages are accessible via https, but this is not
about cloning. Trying this command:
$ git clone https://people.freedesktop.org/~dvdhrm/libtsm
i get error:
fatal: repository 'https://people.freedesktop.org/~dvdhrm/libtsm/' not
found

Since http is unreliable, it is preferred to clone from https instead
of git, for which there is no ssl version today (something like gits or
sgit).

Would be great to have some ssl-cover for freedesktop git read-only
acces too.
