The build lift instructions in Readme don't work

git clone https://github.com/lift/framework.git
cd framework
./liftsh +update +publish

It seems that dl.bintray.com is giving a 500 which indicates problems with the bintray.

Please give it a few hours for the error to clear up (this is beyond this project or the ability of this project to influence)

Okay... I pointed the script to a different download site for sbt:

diff --git a/liftsh b/liftsh

Getting another error:

Anyone (e.g., @Shadowfiend @andreak @farmdawgnation ) got clues as to how to work around this issue?

According to https://stackoverflow.com/questions/70663523/the-unauthenticated-git-protocol-on-port-9418-is-no-longer-supported
... you cannot use the old git:// protocol anymore, so you have to use https or ssh.
To convert existing git://-URLs to https:

git config --global url."https://".insteadOf git://

To convert to ssh:

git config --global url."git@github.com:".insteadOf git://github.com/

Hope this helps.
