Hello,

Cloning an empty repo seems to produce a spurious error.
The repo still seems fine though.

Can't reproduce here:

$ git clone ssh://.../tmp/empty cloned
Initialized empty Git repository in /tmp/cloned/.git/
warning: You appear to have cloned an empty repository.
$ git --version
git version 1.6.4.187.gd399.dirty

Maybe you have an older version of Git?

Had 1.6.4, just tried with 1.6.4.2 -- the error is still there, exactly so.

Anything I can do to provide more info?

To start with, this is Mandriva 2009.1, kernel 2.6.29, git built from
scratch locally (not an RPM or something).  Should I try some other
things like strace?  It's too minor to bother, if that's all it is,
assuming it's not a symptom of something larger :)
