My configuration is:\n- a raw HTTP server (no way to have any WebDav features);\n- a simple FTP for upload.\n\nFollowing the documentation, I first used a local directory mirrored\non the server (with the sitecopy tool). It worked, but needs disk\nspace (and is not funny :-))\n\nSo, I tried a direct git-push over ftp URL (as Curl knows FTP download\nand upload). But it failed because FTP is not supported in push\noperations.\n\nSo, I tried curlftpfs: setting up a local mount point connected to my\nremote directory. It worked... sometimes. But it freeze really often.\n\n\nSo... I ask the Git community :-)\nIs there any hope to see a git-ftp-push command one day? Reading the\nhttp-push.c file, it seems that the most problematic part is that FTP\ndoes not allow LOCKs. But, in my case, LOCKs are not necessary as I'm\nthe only one user to update my remote repo. No chance for conflicting\nupdates.\nAnybody working on such thing?\n-- \nGuilhem BONNEFILLE\n-=- #UIN: 15146515 JID: guyou@im.apinc.org MSN: guilhem_bonnefille@hotmail.com\n-=- mailto:guilhem.bonnefille@gmail.com\n-=- http://nathguil.free.fr/\n"}]}
