Re: git-http-push / webDAV

[Thomas Pasch <thomas.pasch@jentro.com>]

Dear Eygene,

I tried all this on a Gentoo x86_64 machine. No problems!
Git on http/webDAV is just working fine.

I also retried all this on a SuSE 10.3 system. Same
problems as before. Thus it could have to do with
the (general) configuration of the SuSE system.

I still feel that the behaviour of git-push /
git-http-push is *not* approbiate. It should
indicate a problem if it was not able to upload
a new object to the remote server. Just saying

>>>     sending 3 objects
>>>     done

instead of indicating a problem is not what a
user expects. This particulary true if the
objects are not created on the server as it
seems to be in my case.

Cheers,

Thomas
