That one is correct.

Those are all wrong, (thanks Jonas for catching the missing /git). The
correct commands are of course:

 	cg-clone git://git.cairographics.org/git/cairo
 	cg-clone git+ssh://git.cairographics.org/git/cairo
 	git clone git+ssh://git.cairographics.org/git/cairo

Note that the third command was also missing a ':'.

Obviously, I didn't do as much cut-and-paste testing as necessary, but
at least I was right in saying it was broken in spots.

PS. Anyone that got bitten by my mistake may have noticed an annoying
bug in "git clone". If it fails it still leaves the newly-created
directory around, which will then cause a subsequent, corrected clone
command to fail (because the directory exists). I'll be submitting a
patch upstream to the git folks soon to correct this one.
