Hi,

Recently cogito again say that the rsync method will be deprecated in
future (due to http-pull now supporting pack objects I suppose), but it
seems to me that it still have other issues:

If you switch it however to rsync again, it works just fine.  Other
branches like that of KLIBC and one or two others do not even pull via
http-pull.

So basically the question is if this is known issues (had mail issues,
so missed the last week or so's mail) ?


Thanks,
