Hi Matt-

We've just very recently moved the Ubuntu kernel repos from
kernel.ubuntu.com to git.launchpad.net (the old url's are now just
mirrors).

The new URL's (which are https-clonable) are e.g.:

Clone:
git://git.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-kernel/ubuntu/+source/linux/+git/xenial
git+ssh://git.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-kernel/ubuntu/+source/linux/+git/xenial
https://git.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-kernel/ubuntu/+source/linux/+git/xenial

(and that last https: one is also the web-browser viewer URL)

Enjoy!
