Hi Jeff,

I was using the sources from here:

    git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/daemon/cld/cld.git

>From your comment there must be a hail git repository.
Found it:

    http://git.kernel.org/?p=daemon/distsrv/hail.git;a=summary

FYI, when I searched for hail's git repository initially,
https://hail.wiki.kernel.org/ was inaccessible, so I found
the above in a presumably-old cache.
