It was mentioned in this mailing list, that it is easier for you to
add the rules if they are in .git format.
Can someone explain how I can do this? Is there some online
application, which makes a copy of the official HTTPS Everywhere.git,
without me having to download it on my computer, so I just upload the
.xml file.
I tried using gitorious.org, but it is very confusing to set it up. It
was asking for SSH key.

I also tried installing git software.
irst, tell git your name:
git config --global user.name "Your Name"
git config --global user.email "you at example.com"
Then, get a copy of the 'origin' repository:
git clone git://git.torproject.org/https-everywhere.git
cd https-everywhere
Then I get stuck on the next part:
To create a test XPI, you'll need a Cygwin environment under Windows.
Simply run this from the https-everywhere.git toplevel directory:
sh ./makexpi.sh
This should create an xpi file in ./pkg that you can install using a
file:// url.
I installed Cygwin but I am not sure where to type "sh ./makexpi.sh"
in CMD or GIT Bash? Also I am not sure if GIT Bash / Cygwin is
configured properly to work together.
Thats why I am wondering if there is an online only way like how
Google Docs does for Microsoft Word.
