Provide them as a list (or array) in EGIT_REPO_URI,
from git-r3.eclass manual page:

       EGIT_REPO_URI (REQUIRED)
              URIs  to the repository, e.g. git://foo, https://foo. If multiple URIs are provided, the eclass will consider them
              as fallback URIs to try if the first URI does not work.

              It can be overriden via env using ${PN}_LIVE_REPO variable.

              Can be a whitespace-separated list or an array.

              Example:
              EGIT_REPO_URI="git://a/b.git https://c/d.git"
