cg-clone produces "___" file and no working tree

Hi folks,

I'm experiencing a problem that seems like it must be my fault, but I can't figure it out. I'm using cogito-0.17.2-ga543f4f and git version 1.3.0.g2473-dirty.

When I do something like cg-clone rsync://rsync.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/git.git

The first few lines of output are:

defaulting to local storage area warning: templates not found /home/zbrown/share/git-core/templates/ /home/zbrown/git/cogito/cg-clone: line 137: .git/info/cg-fetch-earlydie: No such file or directory /home/zbrown/git/cogito/cg-clone: line 148: .git/info/cg-fetch-initial: No such file or directory

The rest of the process seems to go without incident. However, when I look at the repository I see:

$ ls -A .git ___ $

Then when I cat the "___" file, I see:

$ cat ___ This is a clone-in-progress GIT working tree containing a GIT repository in the .git subdirectory. If you see this file and noone is fetching or cloning in this repository, the clone has been interrupted; you can restart it by issuing this command (it's enough as-is):

        cg-fetch
$

I give the "cg-fetch" command as instructed, but it seems to have no effect, and the "___" file remains unchanged.

What is going on? I'm completely unable to clone a repository. If I try "git clone rsync://rsync.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/git.git", I get this error: "git: 'clone' is not a git-command", and it prints a usage page, but "clone" is listed on that usage page.

I don't know what to make of this, and I don't see any other discussion of this problem, so I assume it's my own fault, but I don't see what I might have done wrong.

Be well, Zack
