Well, it would be better if they'd make better URLs work...  For
example, in our project I made it so:

  http://git.racket-lang.org/plt/

is the gitweb url, and

  git://git.racket-lang.org/plt.git
  http://git.racket-lang.org/plt.git

are the git urls (so git://git.racket-lang.org/plt.git works too).
But that's probably too late for them to do such changes.

(Yeah, part of this is the "lack of focus" wrt google searches.  So
once there is some decision on some page, it would help if the others
redirect to it.)
