That it is not > clear to me... The stuff on alioth is publicly available. I, and others having read/write access to debian-science, should be able to access is running: joostvb@nusku:~/git% git clone ssh://git.debian.org/git/debian-science/packages/engrid.git However, it seems something went wrong when you created your repo on alioth: fatal: '/git/debian-science/packages/engrid.git' does not appear to be a git repository Indeed, there is no git.debian.org:/git/debian-science/packages/engrid.git . You can also check at https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/ ; your repo should show up there once you've succesfully created it. > Do I need more git commands to end the procedure and the above > is just a preliminary start on alioth ? Yes, it seems so. Bye, Joost
