I hit the following issue when trying to update FOSUserBundle:

This deps entry would not work:

[FOSUserBundle]
git=git://github.com/FriendsOfSymfony/FOSUserBundle.git
target=bundles/FOS/UserBundle

But this one does:

[FOSUserBundle]
git=http://github.com/FriendsOfSymfony/FOSUserBundle.git
target=bundles/FOS/UserBundle

Changing to http:// resolved the issue. I had this problem on both a home network and a corporate network behind a firewall. It cost me a lot of time so I would recommend adding a note to this effect in the docs.
