Re: [Orgmode] problems cloning using the http protocol

 For people who cannot use git, we provide zip 
 or tar.gz snapshot release files corresponding 
 to the latest git version. 

Actually this cannot be true.  AFAIK the snapshots were
done by Carsten, not by the server.  I fixed that so now
the snapshots are updated each hour and will be as much
close as possible to the git repo.

  http://orgmode.org/org-latest.zip
  http://orgmode.org/org-latest.tar.gz

(Old org-snapshot.* still available.)

But of course, it's less overhead to pull from git when
possible.

Errm, Richard, please !! Before 'guessing', please,

I think that words are important. If Carsten writes:

zip [...] snapshot release files *corresponding*
 to the *latest git version*.

he means corresponding to the latest git version,
or he's a liar. Is he?

Re: [Orgmode] problems cloning using the http protocol

2009-07-15 Thread Dias Badekas

I was under the impression that downloading/pulling only the changes
from git (even with the *dumb* http method) would be better than
getting repeatedly the whole archive.

According to some posts on this thread, maybe the above assumption is
not correct with git. is that right ?

Still, it seems simpler to just do a git pull instead of going thru a
download, unpack cycle

2009-07-15 Thread Dias Badekas

Thanks for all your help. 
Turns out that the git version was 1.4.* and has a bug that prevented
proper use of http_proxy settings.

Upgrading to git 1.6.3.3 solved the problem.

Now I can use git clone http://

 I don't suppose anyone knows how to git org develpment releases

[Orgmode] problems cloning using the http protocol

2009-07-14 Thread Dias Badekas

At work being behind a corporate firewall I have no choice but to use
the http protocol inorder to get the latest development of orgmode.

unfortunately it doesn't seem to work.
Here's what I get:

bash export http_proxy=http://user:p...@proxyhostname:80/
bash git clone http://repo.or.cz/r/org-mode.git
  Initialized empty Git repository in 
/home/dias/Mystuff/Emacs/downloads/org-mode/.git/
  Cannot get remote repository information.
  Perhaps git-update-server-info needs to be run there?

Can this be fixed ?

 AFAIK, with just an http proxy, you are stuck with http.

 If your company provides a SOCKS proxy (a big if, I know), then you can
 forego http and always use git. You'd need to set up a SOCKS client
 (dante or tsocks), do a little configuration and then if you are behind
 the firewall, you'd do e.g. ``socksify git pull'', rather than ``git pull''.

 HTH,
 Nick

I would guess that it's not as up to date (or is it dynamically
generated on request?) and its not possible to simply git pull the
latest which is a great boon.
