I changed it to use an HTTPS address instead of git://

We prefer HTTPS because the connection is authenticated and it provides
some degree of privacy. Additionally, its port (443) is more likely to
be allowed than the port used by the Git protocol (9418).

I also changed the "label" of the util-linux dependency to "libuuid", to
communicate more clearly what util-linux is being used for.
