Update .gitmodules
Switched to HTTPS URL for submodule shFlags to support installation through proxy behind firewall.
Is this still an issue @akloeber? If so, would be great to have a similar pull request for the ITM Gitflow fork
Yes, sure it is the same problem with the ITM Gitflow fork but there has already been some back and forth:
A switch to HTTPS has already been committed in https://github.com/fspreng/ITM_gitflow/commit/19a6e24a11b76049feed76cbc5604a7fcb90ac14 with comment "This makes it easy to download the submodule from behind a corporate firewall." but reverted through https://github.com/fspreng/ITM_gitflow/commit/03f27baa4dfaf14f8d5e9a71e820909bb4d5311b.
To me it is unclear why this has been reverted.
This currently breaks Macports on El Capitan (maybe also earlier OSX versions) that fails to use the git:// URL. Using https:// for the submodules solves this issue.
The reverting commit might make sense since it also included a username. The clean http://github... works fine.
I have the same issue that @akloeber is experiencing: I'm behind an http/s proxy and by no way I can use git:// (port 22) to get throught it. This PR is the only way to get corporate people get git-flow without forking&fiddling with their own fork: if this is the way to go, no problems here :)
