Subject: git "smart http" server vs. http redirects
Date: Sat, 18 Sep 2010 13:33:48 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <877hijvff7.fsf@catnip.gol.com> (raw)

The savannah.gnu.org admins are trying out the git "smart http" server,
but it doesn't seem to handle http redirects properly... should it?
Is this a bug with the git server?

The follow is from Sylvain Beucler;

This is the response I get from git.sv.gnu.org manually:

  $ telnet git.sv.gnu.org http
