Subject: Problem with "dashless options"
Message-ID: <D69FA890-4249-4DC9-B8AE-C9F105F1AD3B@isy.liu.se>

Hi,

Yesterday I installed a fresh git (1.6.4.2) on my system using  
MacPorts.  Some of the git sub-commands work fine (for instance,  
checkout, status, remote), while push gives an error as follows:

$ git push isy next
fatal: BUG: dashless options don't support arguments

The same thing happens when I do

$ git push --repo=isy next

Since this seems to be a rather severe problem, I suppose it is that  
it is related to the old and perhaps unusual platform I am using.  It  
is a PowerPC machine running Mac OS 10.4, with GCC powerpc-apple- 
darwin8-gcc-4.0.1 and MacPorts 1.8.0.

I'll be happy to provide additional information that might help.


Best regards,

Henrik Tidefelt
