It looks like the jejb scsi-misc archive might not have been
configured properly for http transfers.  There's a script below
which just uses git commands (not cogito) and the native git
protocol which tests out okay here.

A few comments though:

 - Apparently the scsi misc tree you want is actually under "jejb"
   rather than "marcelo" which you had in your script.

 - It's better to use the native git protocol when possible
   (well, the benefits are less on initial clone, but it's still
   a good practice)

 - You're causing a lot of unnecessary traffic for kernel.org by
   cloning a fresh copy of all these trees, it would be much better
   to clone just _once_ and then simply "git pull" in any updates.

 - Two of the trees you're cloning are very close in content to
   each other (linux-2.6 & scsi-misc-2.6) so you can use the git
   "--reference" option to share local objects saving disk space
   (and reducing bandwidth needs even further)

Cheers,
Sean
