Hi,

two little things I noticed while playing around with http-push:

- if you init your test by git-clone'ing from a http repo, be sure to
	add a slash to the URL, else git-push will tell you erroneously
	that the server does not do DAV locking. (Probably http-push.c 
	should be fixed to add the slash when needed.)

- if you execute "git push origin", it does not do anything (correctly?),
	if there is no "Push:" line in .git/remotes/origin (which is the
	default after cloning). Try "git push origin master". (Probably
	http-push or git-push should say something about it, not
	just quit silently.)

If you want to play with it yourself: A minimal setup using Apache needs 
something like this in httpd.conf:

--- snip ---
<Location /gits>
  DAV on
  Deny From *
  Allow From 192.168.0.
</Location>

DAVLockDB "/usr/local/apache2/temp/DAV.lock"
--- snap ---

Make sure that your www user has write permissions on <HTDOCS>/gits and on 
the DAV lock.

Have fun,
