Hi,
I cannot checkout from a cloned git repository I have created. I am
using git 0.99.5 from Gentoo portage.
Following the tutorial, I create new git repository:
$ mkdir git-test
$ cd git-test/
$ git-init-db
defaulting to local storage area
$ echo "Hello, Git" > hello
$ git-update-cache --add hello
$ git-write-tree
4bd2134df7a908d2764f70d155e32650954cfc72
$ echo "Initial commit" | git-commit-tree
4bd2134df7a908d2764f70d155e32650954cfc72 > .git/HEAD
Committing initial tree 4bd2134df7a908d2764f70d155e32650954cfc72
Now on the server, I create a repository:
$ mkdir git-test.git
GIT_DIR=git-test.git/ git-init-db
Then I push my local repository to remote server like this:
$ git push ssh.remote.server:/home/penberg/public_html/git-test.git master

8744316e49411509ba28e9cf567f3aec5833ec74
After which I clone the newly created repository like this:
$ git clone http://www.remote.server/~penberg/git-test.git cloned
defaulting to local storage area
Somebody should define smarter http server protocol
Now, the problem is that checkout does not work:
$ git checkout
usage: git-read-tree (<sha> | -m [-u] <sha1> [<sha2> [<sha3>]])
That's because I have no HEAD:
$ ls -l .git/HEAD
lrwxrwxrwx 1 penberg users 17 Sep 2 14:07 .git/HEAD -> refs/heads/master
$ ls -l .git/refs/heads/
total 0
What am I doing wrong here? Doing a git pull causes the following error:
$ git pull http://www.remote.server/~penberg/git-test.git
Fetching HEAD from http://www.remote.server/~penberg/git-test.git using http
