Re: Problems cloning

Dear diary, on Sun, Oct 09, 2005 at 04:15:47PM CEST, I got a letter
where Nico -telmich- Schottelius [off-list ref] told me that...

Cloning gitweb from kernel.org fails:

It seems that the gitweb repository is broken wrt. fetching over HTTP,
since it does not have the "dumb server info" containing the list of
