Greetings all,

First of all, thanks for taking the time to read this and help out. The problem:

I'm trying to clone a repository for the first time on a hosting account that just got setup with Git. However, the problem is that for some reason there is no git-index-pack. I cannot find any reason that that one particular command would not be installed, but for some reason that seems to be the case.

Has anyone ever heard of anything like this? Is my only option to completely scrap Git and try again?

Thanks, Michael Boutros
