GIT problems.

GIT problems.

[James Simmons]

I'm having trouble merging my local branch to the latest tree from linus.
I event tried to grab a fresh tree from kernel.org and then create a clone 
from it.

I did a 

cg-init 
rsync://rsync.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git

This worked with output being

sent 147 bytes  received 863 bytes  673.33 bytes/sec

Next I did the below.

mkdir fbdev-2.6
cd fbdev-2.6
cg-init /usr/src/linus-2.6/

defaulting to local storage area
`/usr/src/linus-2.6//.git/refs/heads/master' -> `.git/refs/heads/origin'

What is wrong?

I'm seeing similar error here (today cogito):
