Load grunt-sed via HTTPS

[ncksllvn]

Since all other dependencies are loaded via HTTPS, it makes sense to load grunt-sedthe same way even though it's being pulled from GitHub. I had some problems installing it while behind a firewall but had no problems installing any of the others.

"grunt-sed": "git+https://github.com/twbs/grunt-sed.git#v0.2.0",

Added pull request #17446

@ncksllvn How did you determine that it's using git:// HTTP in the first place?

[cvrebert]

Erm, sorry, git://, not HTTP. And I see what you mean. Looks like npm tries, in order:

1. git://github.com/twbs/grunt-sed.git
2. https://github.com/twbs/grunt-sed.git
3. git@github.com:twbs/grunt-sed.git

[ncksllvn]

@cvreber Yeah exactly. We saw this in the log file along with the ssh attempt to connect:

git clone git://github.com/twbs/grunt-sed fatal: unable to connect to github.com

Filed npm/npm#9470

I was having this problem too, this was perfect

[TheJeremyGray]

I think my firewall may have the git port blocked, but I had assumed it would fall back to https. I am looking into the firewall issue on my side.

[cvrebert]

npm will be fixing this behavior on their end in a future release; see npm/npm#9470 (comment)

However, we do plan to kill grunt-sed for other reasons; you can track progress on that at #18338.
