Hello,

Newbie question here.    

Background:
We're trying to adopt git,  enterprise inhouse,   with gitorious stack from 
bitnami (saved a lot of work...).
ssh works fine,   git protocol does not due to firewall and that's ok (I 
proved it works on my laptop).    
Because of some internal partitioning,   we can't ssh in both directions.
This is OK,  because I can still push the repositories in one direction for 
deployments.  That's the last option.
Well rsync push was the last option tried,  but git is now perceived as 
"partially working".

Problem:
HTTP protocol does not work in any case.   It says "you appear to have 
cloned an empty repository"
when I know there is stuff in the repository.   If I had http,  then 
presumably there'd be a pull option for deployment
in addition to the single push option I have left.

I set up my alias in /etc/hosts,  and run this:

$ git clone http://git.my.real.server.org/repoorg/repoorg.git test9876
Initialized empty Git repository in /opt/tmp/test9876/.git/
warning: You appear to have cloned an empty repository.

Have fiddled around with this and explored the source a bit,  googled, 
 nothing.  Is this a common problem?

Thanks!
Rich
p.s.
I am considering running TeamForge in a virtualbox to see how it feels in 
comparison,  but would like to stick with
gitorious if I could understand it (though I am not a Rails developer have 
got the rails training and the tshirt).
