From: Mariusz Kozlowski Date: Fri, 14 Jul 2006 14:20:05 GMT Subject: git 1.2.4 and linux-2.6 tree problem Message-ID: <200607141620.05350.m.kozlowski@tuxland.pl> Hello, I get repeatable errors when I follow steps from "Kernel Hackers' Guide to git" (http://linux.yyz.us/git-howto.html). The thing is when I try to pull Linus tree with: git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git linux-2.6 After downloading approx. 60MB I get these errors: fatal: packfile '/home/me/linux/linux-2.6/.git/objects/pack/tmp-lfnDg8' SHA1 mismatch error: git-clone-pack: unable to read from git-index-pack error: git-index-pack died with error code 128 clone-pack from 'git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git' failed. The git version is 1.2.4 (marked as stable in gentoo). Any ideas? Regards, Mariusz
