Just trying to set up my public repository and test it.

cg-clone http://www.chandlerfamily.org.uk/git/famtree.git new

When I get near the end the following happens:

http://www.chandlerfamily.org.uk/git/famtree.git/refs/tags/: 05:46:53 ERROR 403: Forbidden.

I suspect its trying to get a list of tags, but is the ":" part of the error message, or was that what it was trying to receive.

Does it require that apache serves the directories properly, because at the moment I have DirectoryIndex on these set to gitweb.cgi (although thats giving me 403 errors at the moment, hence my suspicions)

  You seem to have bad luck with subjects today. ;-)

Dear diary, on Fri, Nov 11, 2005 at 07:56:29AM CET, I got a letter where Alan Chandler <alan@chandlerfamily.org.uk> said that...

It seems to be part of the error message. This is wget's error anyway.

It require_d_ in the past that refs/tags/ would have directory listing permitted.

This is no longer the requirement right now and in 0.16rc1 (which I released the last night, but didn't get to write announcement for it yet).
