My standard answer would be

http-server$ cd /var/www/git/zd1211.git/ ;# or whereever
http-server$ GIT_DIR=. git-update-server-info

but you said you have run it already...  Can you try to see if
there is some caching proxy involved that still serves stale
info/refs file?

client$ wget http://dsd.object4.net/git/zd1211.git/info/refs
