  Well, right now there are still:
    - hourly snapshots extracted from git available via http and FTP
      ftp://libvirt.org/libvirt/
      http://libvirt.org/sources/
    - the git interface at 
      http://libvirt.org/git/?p=libvirt.git;a=summary
      allows to extract snapshots
but git though HTTP is not configured, in general it's fairly inefficient.
