Re: Git - index-pack missing

I'm trying to clone a repository for the first time on a hosting
account that just got setup with Git. However, the problem is that for
some reason there is no git-index-pack. I cannot find any reason that
that one particular command would not be installed, but for some
reason that seems to be the case.

You may want to study output from "git help --all" to see if there is
anything *else* that is missing.  You did not say which version of git you
use, and how it was built and installed with which non-standard options
and in what way, so it is hard to guess what is going on.

Perhaps:

	$ cd ~root
        $ grep 'rm .*index-pack' .history .bash_history

could help locating the cause of breakage, but there are other ways to
break your installation, so...

Has anyone ever heard of anything like this?

Not me.
