I am trying to clone the msysgit repository but I get this error:

$ git clone http://repo.or.cz/w/msysgit.git
Initialized empty Git repository in d:/devel/git/msysgit/.git/
D:/program/Git/bin/git-clone: line 144: /bin/git-http-fetch: Bad file

Okay, I get the same error here.  Fishy.  But then, this is not the 
correct URL either (so I think Peff's patch probably fixes it).

What you tried is the gitweb URL, which explicitely says

	Mirror URL	git://repo.or.cz/msysgit.git

			http://repo.or.cz/r/msysgit.git

IOW replace your "/w/" by "/r/" and have fun,
