Weird how such a geek central place like GitHub doesn't support IPv6 o_O.

I'm unfamiliarity with tunnelling IPv4 over IPv6, but I'm curious if the 
guide you found on aisecure.net worked for you? I would give it a shot 
if you haven't tried them yet. It was written only a few years ago 
(2013), so it could still work.

Cheers,
Yonas
