Subject: [Bug] vfat: Not a git archive
Message-ID: <873anwt9ya.fsf@debian.erik.com>

Hi,

I am having this issue on Debian with kernel 2.6.25 (2.6.24 works fine)
and git 1.5.5.3.

  $ git push /media/KINGSTON/foo.git
  fatal: '/media/KINGSTON/foo.git': unable to chdir or not a git archive
  fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly

A notable difference between these 2 kernels is this line:

  [   62.575939] FAT: utf8 is not a recommended IO charset for FAT
  filesystems, filesystem will be case sensitive!

which appears in 2.6.25.

If this bug should be filed against Debian I will do so.

	Thomas
