Cloning over http this repo, using git v1.5.0.5 and v1.5.1.106.ga32037
  http://git.catalyst.net.nz/git/moodle-r2.git
The clone doesn't complete successfully.
 - I don't get a checkout
 - It never creates .git/branches/origin
 - It never creates .git/refs/heads/master

OTOH, it does fetch all the packfiles, and creates all the refs for the remote branches under .git/refs/remotes/origin/

hmmm...? I did run git-update-server-info on the server...
