[QtonPi] init-repository failing

[Donald Carr]

Hey David,

So the server infrastructure between gitorious and gerrit is entirely
distinct. You will probably (read definitely) have more luck checking
out code from gerrit, since gitorious seems to have an awfully large
amount of downtime.

I adjusted the init-repository script with:

-    'ssh'       => 'git at scm.dev.nokia.troll.no:'   ,
+    'ssh'       => 'ssh://dcarr@codereview.qt-project.org:29418/'   ,

and ran it with:

./init-repository --ssh

which did the job nicely. You should be able to do this anonymously if
this appeals to you more, but I did not attempt it. If you know perl,
you might address this in a more elegant fashion, and possibly
upstream it as your first contribution :)

Cheers,
Donald
