[U-Boot-Users] ppc4xx: Unable to clone git repository from denx

[Niklaus Giger]

Hi

I wanted to get Stefan's git and got the following error:
> $ git clone http://www.denx.de/git/u-boot-ppc4xx.git/ work 
<...>
> Getting pack list for http://www.denx.de/u-boot.git/

> f616ab96cc773d1719761d511a8649c9aa6eb473 while processing commit

It would be nice if this error could be fixed. But I will go home for the weekend
in a few minutes.

Best regards

Niklaus

Hm.  It seems like its not easy to transparently support both
www.denx.de and git.denx.de accesses over http.

Please try

git clone http://git.denx.de/u-boot-ppc4xx

This works for me.  I'll see what I can do to support the old URL.

Cheers and have a nice weekend

Trying this new URL gives me here:
$ git clone http://git.denx.de/u-boot-ppc4xx
Initialized empty Git repository in /home/ng/u-boot/u-boot-ppc4xx/.git/
Cannot get remote repository information.
Perhaps git-update-server-info needs to be run there?
But ping does work:
$ ping git.denx.de
PING theia.denx.de (85.214.87.163) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from theia.denx.de (85.214.87.163): icmp_seq=1 ttl=53 time=29.4 ms

The old URL still has the same error as mentioned above.

> This works for me.  I'll see what I can do to support the old URL.
It's no big deal to change the URL. A clear error message would be nice.

Best regards

Argh.  Sometimes .git makes a difference:

dzu at ohwell:tmp[2]$ git clone http://git.denx.de/u-boot-ppc4xx.git
Initialized empty Git repository in /tmp/u-boot-ppc4xx/.git/
Getting alternates list for http://git.denx.de/u-boot-ppc4xx.git
Also look at http://git.denx.de/u-boot.git/
Getting pack list for http://git.denx.de/u-boot-ppc4xx.git
Getting index for pack 06eefc330404f9a6889dd23a2f7ba36f5ab322f1
.....

Cheers
