Oddities cloning over http

From: Martin Langhoff <hidden>

Cloning over http this repo, using git v1.5.0.5 and v1.5.1.106.ga32037

  http://git.catalyst.net.nz/git/moodle-r2.git

The clone doesn't complete successfully.

 - I don't get a checkout
 - It never creates .git/branches/origin
 - It never creates .git/refs/heads/master

OTOH, it does fetch all the packfiles, and creates all the refs for
the remote branches under .git/refs/remotes/origin/

hmmm...? I did run git-update-server-info on the server...

Hi Martin,


I've seen this behavior when the server repo files don't have the same
owner/group as the one you're running the server with. That happened to
me after I edited the config files.


Cheers,
Emil.

Ok - at least in my case, this seems to be related to problems
fetching HEAD on the server, probably because apache doesn't allow
symlinks. What I don't quite follow is where is the best place to
check for this. The logic is a bit muddy.

cheers,
