[U-Boot] HTTP access to u-boot-x86

Hello U-Boot Developers,
just to let you know, I found that http access to the repository http://git.denx.de/u-boot-x86.git is broken. When I attempt to git clone, I receive the following message:
$ git clone http://git.denx.de/u-boot-x86.git Cloning to 'u-boot-x86' ... error: Unable to find 8609a7d6a0989a9ff6d886ffe11bcbb1e98748ed under http://git.denx.de/u-boot-x86.git Cannot obtain needed tree 8609a7d6a0989a9ff6d886ffe11bcbb1e98748ed while processing commit 2883cc2d48e99fd1873ef8af03fee7966611b735. error: fetch failed.
Access to http://git.denx.de/u-boot.git works flawlessly. To ensure that this is not a problem with a corporate proxy, I also attempted to access the repositories from my home machine. I get the same error message for http://git.denx.de/u-boot-x86.git, while I can clone the repo just fine using git://git.denx.de/u-boot-x86.git.
Best Regards

I am not sure what's the issue. I've always been using git protocol to do the clone.

Dear Bin Meng,
In message CAEUhbmXMCu=zAqV71JYV78JkR95QFtFZm8X7D3jfZ=dOYy4+Wg@mail.gmail.com you wrote:

I also have no idea. For some reason, HTTP accesses are broken. I speculate that the gitweb code we run on our git server has become incompatible with recent versions of git. We've been planning an update 9and move to a new, faster machine) for a long time, but did not find the resources yet to complete it.
In the mean time, using the github repo might be a workaround.
I promise to take care ASAP.
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
