I'm pretty sure this is due to Alioth's policy of only allowing logins
with ssh keys (i.e. signing in with a password is no longer allowed).
See:

http://wiki.debian.org/Alioth/SSH

The tux4kids git repos have no special security settings, just the
defaults provided by Alioth.  As a member of the Alioth "tux4kids"
project, you should be able to successfully create a read/write clone
using the method you attempted if you have uploaded your public key to
Alioth as described in the wiki.

Cheers,
