Hi!

I am having problems cloning with git running on Mac OS X (installed from macports). I am cloning from a Linux box:

$ git clone ssh://peter@server/path localpath Initialized empty Git repository in /Users/peter/tmp/localpath/.git/ percent_expand: NULL replacement fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly fetch-pack from 'ssh://server/path' failed.

$ git --version git version 1.5.5.1

Any ideas what is wrong? I successfully cloned from that repository to a Windows (msysgit) install yesterday, over ssh.

Git on the Linux box I'm cloning from: $ git --version git version 1.5.4.2

(installed from Debian package version 1:1.5.4.2-1~bpo40+2)
