Secondly, has anybody given any thought to allowing a user to create a bundle from any of the web front-ends? The reason for this request is that I've been doing some work for a company where only corporate standard desktops have internet access. They run Windows, and you can't install additional software on them. This makes interacting with an external git repository from my development servers problematic. Git bundles do at least make this possible, but I have to create a bundle on my laptop when I'm at home and transfer it to a server when I get to the office. This would be a whole lot easier if I could just download the bundle at the office. Thanks, Matt ``` ## Jakub Narebski, 2007-11-06 21:49 Subject: Re: git-bundle questions Message-ID: URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/fgqnhv%245di%241%40ger.gmane.org In-Reply-To: <1194382443.5568.13.camel@localhost.localdomain> ``` Matthew Booth wrote: > Secondly, has anybody given any thought to allowing a user to create a > bundle from any of the web front-ends?

The problem lies in how to specify the commits and refs to bundle. Perhaps separate CGI script would be an answer. -- Jakub Narebski Warsaw, Poland ShadeHawk on #git ```
