But you are.  I can run this just fine:
 $ git clone http://www.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/git.git/ linus

I agree in principle that you should be able to disable the call to update_server_info() from there, but on the other hand once we start doing it, we need to explain people which repo is http capable and which repo is not and why.

I was actually thinking about a call to git-update-server-info at the end of git-repack-script. Again, great minds think the opposite way sometimes ;-).
