I suggested on IRC to try this (I reproduced the error)

mkdir test && cd test && \
git-init && \
git fetch http://intellinuxwireless.org/repos/ipwraw.git master:master

and it works. Ok, fist I thought the error is in another branch, but

git-ls-remote http://intellinuxwireless.org/repos/ipwraw.git

7e85b2032a864fcfe489085b768eea4b3a3a9d0b        refs/tags/ipwraw-0.0.2

there is no other branch, at least as I could see.
