Verify you can still checkout from gitorious.org.  They made some other
change recently to support read-only access to live beyond the May
deadline, and that may have screwed things up.

They really didn't handle this too well, IMHO.

Worst case:  create the repo on GitHub and manually push your local repo
upstream to it.  It's essentially all they do with that import button.
