I get an error message when I try to push my git repository to a share 
mounted with mount.cifs.

[emanuel@faseri01 frog]$ git --version
git version 1.7.7.6

This repository is 67M. I do not have any git hooks configured. Another, 
smaller repository works without errors if I follow the same procedure. 
The client is a fully up to date Fedora 16 machine. The server is a 
windows 2003 server.

Is this kind of usage possible with git? I just want to back up my 
repository to the fileserver.

Thank you for your time.

Kind Regards,
