I was just noticing this thread unceremoniously died, and a long time ago now I remembering discussing a problem involving the Postgres git mirror accumulating packfiles eternally. It seemed that whatever repacking scheme was used would get rid of loose objects, turning them into packs but never consolidate packs. Why not just run 'git gc'? This is probably the only quasi-regularly required maintenance command, so much so that git (I think) runs it from time to time when certain thresholds are passed in modern day. (For a clone-source it is probably a good idea to run it a bit more liberally) fdr -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers

Why are you cloning over http? Me too I've used http, since I'm behind a proxy and I couldn't find a simple way of having the git:// method working behind a proxy... -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers

Here is the best way to clone, which seems to be working: Unfortunately for us, the port that git uses isn't currently allowed outbound by our corporate firewall. I expect that to be true for other PG users who want git and for some build-farm members, so I think we really need to support git cloning over http. As a side-note, it works just fine from git-hub's http mirror and that's what we've been playing with, but I don't know if we want to recommend that for build-farm members.. Thanks!

[HACKERS] Error with GIT Repository
Greetings all, I have been trying to create/run a build farm as part of a project I am working on. However, I have noticed the primary git repostitory, git.postgresql.org/git, does not seem to be working.
