And I think git:// should be encouraged over\nhttp://, but some people (including me at work) can only come\nfrom http://, so...\n\n> I don't understand how http:// works (or doesn't), so..\n\nThe difference between git-ls-remote against your repository via\ngit:// and http:// would tell you. Your info/refs in your repo\nis stale; git http transport is designed to cope with webservers\nwithout dirindex, and only uses info/refs to find out what refs\nyou have in that repository. It does not fall back on \"wget -r\"\nbehaviour simply because it is a mess (you get all sorts of\nuseless links by doing dirindex in refs/ directory, like Name,\nLast modified, Size, Parent Directory).\n\nMind enabling hooks/post-update on the master so that\nupdate-server-info is run after you push into it?\n"},{"id":"12565","messageId":"20051122203852.GA15811@havoc.gtf.org","threadId":"2640","inReplyTo":"20051122201726.GB8738@fieldses.org","subject":"Re: 2.6.15-rc2 tag","fromName":"Jeff Garzik","fromEmail":"jgarzik@pobox.com","sentAt":"2005-11-22T20:38:52Z","receivedAt":"2005-11-22T20:38:52Z","isPatch":false,"sender":{"key":"jgarzik@pobox.com","avatar":null},"body":"On Tue, Nov 22, 2005 at 03:17:26PM -0500, J.

But for others:\n\n1) Corporate firewalls, which only allow HTTP transit, without\n jumping through hoops.\n\n2) Far easier to find HTTP hosting than rsync or git hosting.\n\n\tJeff\n"}]}
