url change patch

I was bussy updating gst-libav gstreamer. But it failed finally I found out that 
git://source.ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg.git was down
but there is actually a very good mirror which is more stable then source.ffmpeg.
that is now:
https://github.com/FFmpeg/FFmpeg.git
the commits ref are idem dito like the original source.ffmpeg.
git clone https://github.com/FFmpeg/FFmpeg.git -b release/3.0 .
I now change the .gitmodules with patch included here:

But I do not now is there not an option to use more url's should the first fail ?
Comment 1 Tim-Philipp Müller 2016-05-02 11:26:20 UTC 
We should move it to http URIs anyway. The canonical one seems to be https://git.videolan.org/git/ffmpeg.git ?
Comment 2 christophe vr 2016-05-02 11:39:23 UTC 
Yes but videolan is very very slow. after 5 minute still only the .git repo.
looks not to be ok.
Comment 3 christophe vr 2016-05-02 17:30:09 UTC 
the git://source.ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg.git back online
