"go get -u github.com/golang/protobuf/{proto,protoc-gen-go}" doesn't work.

The README suggests using "go get -u" to install protobuf. However, it doesn't work.

$ go get -u github.com/golang/protobuf/{proto,protoc-gen-go}
package github.com/golang/protobuf/proto: /Users/paul/Code/go/src/github.com/golang/protobuf is from git@github.com:golang/protobuf, should be from https://github.com/golang/protobuf
package github.com/golang/protobuf/protoc-gen-go: /Users/paul/Code/go/src/github.com/golang/protobuf is from git@github.com:golang/protobuf, should be from https://github.com/golang/protobuf

It looks like you checked out the repo originally using the native git protocol instead of http. Try deleting $GOPATH/src/github.com/golang/protobuf and trying again. Future updates should stay working.

Deleting src/github.com/golang/protobuf and trying again gave the same error message.

I repro'd in a clean directory too:
cd
mkdir h
cd h
export GOPATH=pwd
go get -u github.com/golang/protobuf/{proto,protoc-gen-go}

package github.com/golang/protobuf/proto
imports github.com/golang/protobuf/protoc-gen-go: /Users/paul/h/src/github.com/golang/protobuf is from git@github.com:golang/protobuf, should be from https://github.com/golang/protobuf

If it helps:
$ go version
go version go1.4 darwin/amd64

Ugh, I found this stanza in my top-level .gitconfig:
[url "git@github.com:"]
insteadOf = https://github.com/

Sorry for the noise.
