giter8 not able to connect to github

[Donald Mennerich]

Hello, 

I was just gettign started with cs/g8. For some reason g8 seems to be unable to connect to any templates stored on github.

dm$ cs n8han/giter8
giter8 0.5.3
Usage: g8 [TEMPLATE] [OPTION]...
Apply specified template.
OPTIONS
    -b, --branch
        Resolves a template within a given branch
    --paramname=paramvalue
        Set given parameter value and bypass interaction.
Apply template and interactively fulfill parameters.
    g8 n8han/giter8
Or
    g8 git://github.com/n8han/giter8.git
Apply template from a remote branch
    g8 n8han/giter8 -b some-branch
Apply template from a local repo
    g8 file://path/to/the/repo
Apply given name parameter and use defaults for all others.
    g8 n8han/giter8 --name=template-test
Conscripted n8han/giter8 to /Users/dm/bin/g8

Looks like everything installed

dm$ g8
giter8 0.4.5
Usage: g8 [TEMPLATE] [OPTION]...
Apply specified template.
...

and the bin is executable

but when I try to pull anything from git I get the following http client error...

dm$ g8 git://github.com/n8han/giter8.git
Exception fetching from github org/apache/http/HttpRequest 

dm$ g8 scalatra/scalatra-sbt
Exception fetching from github org/apache/http/HttpRequest

I've dug around the web but haven't found anything to help me trouble shoot this. Does anyone know what's going on here? I'm at a loss. I'm on a Mac with Java 6 andI've got sbt 0.12 installed via a script at ~/bin. But I tried running this with sbt as installed via homebrew. I don't have any rogue copies of apache http on my system classpath. And, I'm pretty sure I'm on the internet -- I'm posting to this group :)

Thanks, 

Don

Up top, conscript says it installed g8 0.5.3 (the latest version). Down
here I see 0.4.5.

Ah! thanks -- I had a previous version installed via homebrew (which I have absolutely no memory of installing) G8 working fine now.
