Re: FW: Git pulls failing on ia64 test tree?

After the first complaint, I looked around and found out about
"git-update-server-info" (which I'd somehow missed).  So I ran
(on master.kernel.org):

  $ GIT_DIR=/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/aegl/linux-2.6.git git-update-server-info

and I now have info/refs, info/rev-cache, and objects/info/packs files.

That is a nice, but rsync bypasses all of that so I suspect
there is something else.  If you did not say:

12 hours later, I got another complaint.

I would have suspected that this was when one of the kernel.org
mirror machine was misbehaving and did not update for a day or
so, but I think it is already resolved now so I am puzzled..

I've set up objects/info/alternates to point at linus' tree and deleted
all the packs from my tree.  The web view at kernel.org/git looks ok,
so I think those changes are ok.

So what am I missing?

Let me take a look at your tree on master while I'll try to pull
from your public tree and see if I can reproduce.
