Actually I'm already finished. Seems like the default git repository is 
available in any project, even though the web page doesn't show the 
instructions unless the project admin has explicitly enabled that one. Hence, 
@Benoit: Please enable the GIT project feature and disable the CVS feature. 
Having said that, here's how you access the new git repo of libofx:

  git clone  ssh://USE...@li.../gitroot/libofx/libofx 
libofx.git       # read/write

or for the non-members in read-only mode

  git clone  git://libofx.git.sourceforge.net/gitroot/libofx/libofx libofx.git       
# read-only

where the last argument is just the name of the local directory. After this,

  cd libofx.git
  git config user.name "YOUR NAME"
  git config user.email "USE...@us..."
  git config branch.master.remote origin
  git config branch.master.merge refs/heads/master
  git config push.default tracking

And instead of "cvs update", we now use "git pull", and instead of "cvs 
commit", we use "git commit -a" and "git push".

Best Regards,

Christian
