Well ... Now it works. I have not changed anything. I have used the same command as the other day, I swear. :)
In any case, thank you. I will use the shorter version. Thanks.

The above command works okay for me. This leads me to believe that there is a problem locally. What are the permissions for the local directory? ls -ld Try a test checkout in /tmp which should be writable by anyone. cd /tmp git clone git://git.sv.gnu.org/gnulib The .git on the end is optional. There shouldn't be any difference between git.savannah.gnu.org and git.sv.gnu.org. Because of this I normally use the shorter version. If the above doesn't work in /tmp then I would test the git installation further. Bob
