Dear Robert, In message alpine.DEB.2.02.1203180937590.7439@oneiric you wrote: $ git clone http://git.yoctoproject.org/poky.git git Cloning into git... fatal: http://git.yoctoproject.org/poky.git/info/refs not found: did you run git update-server-info on the server? This is indeed an issue that should be fixed on the server. now that i'm awake, i can expand on the above. it seems that you simply can't use a single entity for this since you can use it in two different contexts: 1) for browsing (http://) 2) for cloning (git://) isn't the obvious solution to define two different entities, to be used depending on the context? Umm... I think you get this wrong. You should be able to access the repository thrugh git both with git clone http://git.yoctoproject.org/poky.git and git clone git://git.yoctoproject.org/poky.git For access though a web browser, the URL would be http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/poky which is indeed a separate thing.
