Yeah, see above. www.kernel.org does not like to serve /home/ftp/pub/scm path; it wants to serve it as /pub/scm/linux instead. Your objects/info/alternates in 2.6.24.y points at /pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/... but in 2.6.25.y it has extra /home/ftp in front of it. A quick fix is obviously to remove the extra prefix but it makes me wonder how these two "stable" repositories were prepared differently. Could this be a regression in "git clone"? Or perhaps you "clone -s"'s Linus's repository slightly differently between them?
