I am successfully using Magit on repositories located locally on my
machine, but when I invoke magit-status in a buffer displaying a file or
directory via tramp using SSH, I am prompted with "Git repository:" in the
minibuffer. If I enter a tramp address like "/hostname:dirname" I see Magit
is trying to execute git with the tramp address as a literal directory name:
magit-run*(("git" "init" "/ssh:hostname:/home/username/dirname/"))
My understanding is the version of Magit I'm using supports tramp. What am
I misunderstanding or doing wrong?
GNU Emacs 24.2.1
Magit 1.1.1
