Hello all,

I am trying to set up my git server using git-daemon, unfortunately the simple config is not working. I have ran git-daemon by hand using: git-daemon --syslog --export-all --base-path=/data/git&

In /data/git/pocm/ I have test.git/

I do: $ git clone git://localhost/pocm/test.git test Initialized empty Git repository in /home/pocm06r/test/.git/ fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly fetch-pack from 'git://localhost/pocm/test.git' failed.

I don't understand what's the problem with fetch-pack. Nothing shows up on /var/log/messages. Anyway to get more information from git to know what the problem git is having?

Cheers,
