wlroots hangs when running git fetch #12

Looks like the HTTPS git endpoint at wlroots repo is borked:

https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/freedesktop/freedesktop/-/issues/407

The only workaround available is to switch the remote to use ssh, but this requires people to create an accoung at gitlab.freedesktop and adding their pubkey.

~ cd wlroots
wlroots ~ git remote set-url origin git@gitlab.freedesktop.org:wlroots/wlroots.git

Not ideal but nothing we can do from here other than tracking the error until it's fixed and let people know via this issue here.

The HTTPS git endpoint seems to have been eventually fixed upstream.
