SRC_URI = "git://git.oe.handhelds.org/git/vip.git;tag=version-1"
SRC_URI = "git://git.oe.handhelds.org/git/vip.git;protocol=http"

Specifying passwords directly in ``git://`` urls is not supported.
There are several reasons: ``SRC_URI`` is often written out to logs and

easy to share metadata without removing passwords. SSH keys, ``~/.netrc``
and ``~/.ssh/config`` files can be used as alternatives.
