My \"cure\" was to make git-gui use \ngit-clone. I still have that patch, have rebased it (some conflicts) \nonto current git-gui master, and it still works in my very limited testing.\n\nBut, git-gui currently has no active maintainer, and Junio is now in a \nrelease cycle, so the list's concern is not on new topics like this. For \nboth reasons, I'll hold onto the patch until the release cycle completes.\n\nMark\n"}]}
