Git over HTTPS

Git over HTTPS

[Jason Wagner]

I'm trying to set up a git repository on DAV on Apache, but having some trouble pushing via HTTPS.  I've set everything up according to the documentation-- http.sslVerify=false, .netrc setup, bare repository and update-server-info, etc.  The goal is to have read access available by http, but require authed https to write.  Here's the config I've been using:

Alias /public.git /var/git/public
<Location /public.git>
   DAV on
   Options +Indexes
#TEST    <LimitExcept GET PROPFIND OPTIONS>
#TEST       AuthType Basic
#TEST      AuthName "Git repository"
#TEST       AuthUserFile /var/git/public.git.httpusers
#TEST       Require valid-user
#TEST       SSLRequireSSL
#TEST     </LimitExcept>
</Location>

I turned off the LimitExcept for testing purposes.  Inside of public is "logging", a git init --bare repository.  When testing, I can do the following:
git config repository.http.url http://jason@platinum/public.git/logging
git config repository.https.url https://jason@platinum/public.git/logging

git pull http
git push http
# fresh local repository
git pull https

When I do "git push https -f --all -v" after changing a single file, I get:

Pushing to https://jason@platinum/public.git/logging
Getting pack list
Fetching remote heads...
  refs/
  refs/heads/
  refs/tags/
updating 'refs/heads/master'
  from b8339306a895f5f18675116ab202b001cfbb95ce
  to   00d2d209b62f6f5322e943726b90bbf75f8a940a

Then it freezes until I ctrl-c it.  Sometimes the process stays around afterwards sometimes and needs a kill -9.

In the apache logs, I see the same requests coming in on both the http and https pushes.  It seems to be locking on
[01/Feb/2009:14:36:05 -0500] 127.0.0.1 TLSv1 RC4-MD5 "MKCOL /public.git/logging/refs/ HTTP/1.1" 321

or 

[01/Feb/2009:08:43:51 -0500] 127.0.0.1 TLSv1 RC4-MD5 "UNLOCK /public.git/logging/info/refs HTTP/1.1" -

I've done this on both git 1.5.6.6 and 1.6.2 to the same results.  I'm using a fully updated Fedora 9 install on the server machine.  Has anyone run into similar problems or have any suggestions?
