title: Checkout projects from https://android.googlesource.com
body: <p>I'm using Windows 8, 64 bytes and trying to follow the explanation in <a href="http://source.android.com/source/downloading.html" rel="nofollow">http://source.android.com/source/downloading.html</a> with no luck. I've notice that this explanation is better suite Linux users then Windows+Cygwin users so I decided to install git and use it.</p>
  
  <p>My problem is that when I'm trying to perform "git clone [URL]" it always says "fatal: remote error: Git repository not found".</p>
  
  <p>Strange thing, when I'm doing the following: 
      git clone <a href="https://android.googlesource.com/platform/manifest" rel="nofollow">https://android.googlesource.com/platform/manifest</a> it works and cloning the manifest.</p>
  
  <p>I'm getting similar errors when I'm using "Download SVN"</p>
  
  <p>I'm sure that there is an easier way to download/check out code from www.googlesource.com
   and would love to hear your opinions.</p>
