The .gitmodules file contains:

[submodule "gnulib"]
        path = gnulib
        url = git://git.sv.gnu.org/gnulib.git
[submodule "bootstrap"]
        path = gl-mod/bootstrap
        url = https://github.com/gnulib-modules/bootstrap.git

but AFAIK, there is no host authentication done with the "git:"
protocol, so that this is vulnerable to MitM attacks.

How about changing this to https?
