Comment 2 Devan Goodwin 2021-11-02 17:21:42 UTC

I am working on a PR to disable this in 4.10 and backport throughout, but will leave this bugzilla open for a proper fix.

Comment 3 Adam Kaplan 2021-11-02 17:54:20 UTC

Marking this as a release blocker - given the ubiquity of GitHub we should consider drafting a KCS article to help customers adapt to GitHub's new requirements.

Comment 5 Adam Kaplan 2021-11-02 18:16:35 UTC

GitHub's announcement they are disabling the `git://` protocol [1]. They are doing this in phases:

1. An initial "brownout", which we hit today (November 2, 2021).
2. A second, longer "brownout" on January 11, 2022.
3. Final shutdown on March 15, 2022.

KCS approved ... moving to closed/currentrelease
