You're right it should be git instead of gt, somewhere in my copying strings around I lost the 'i' and wasn't paying attention. That's not a very good error message: "fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly" for a missing repository.

Here's a git clone with the right string. It works:
jonsmirl@jonsmirl:/extra$ git clone

Same thing with cg clone, it's what is broken. cg update is broken in the same way. I'm using the current git version of cogitio. I'll switch to the git commands, git clone is about 10x faster for the clone anyway.
