+===Commit access behind firewall===
+If you we are behind firewall and need only RO access to git.sugarlabs.org you can use HTTP lins, like
+ http://git.sugarlabs.org/git/<project>/mainline.git
+But if you need commit access you'll have to setup ssh proxy tunnel. One options is using [http://www.torproject.org/ Tor]. So, install all requirements:
+* [http://www.torproject.org/ Tor] to make tunnel via Tor network
+* [http://www.meadowy.org/~gotoh/projects/connect/ connect] to let ssh using this tunnel
+You don't need any special configs for this software(in case of Tor if your distribution makes some smart pre-configurations, just remove /etc/tor/torrc).
+Setup your tunnel in ssh. Add followed lines to your ~/.ssh/config
+ Host git.sugarlabs.org
+     User gitorious
+     ProxyCommand /usr/bin/connect -S 127.0.0.1:9050 git.sugarlabs.org 22
+Then start Tor, you can just run it on behalf of your account
+ tor
+Then do the regular stuff I can do without any firewalls.
