The README gives an example like this:
cd ~/.vim/bundle && \
git clone git://github.com/tpope/vim-sensible.git
which should really be:
cd ~/.vim/bundle && \
git clone https://github.com/tpope/vim-sensible.git
The problem is that the git protocol has no message authentication.
This issue seems to also effect your Vim plugins.

It's actually been on my todo list to replace all my URLs with a hosting agnostic redirect. Something like
git clone https://tpope.io/vim/sensible.git

Sounds good. In that case you could maybe even completely self host the mirror instead of redirecting?
