Hello,

The "fatal: protocol error: bad line length character" seems fairly
common, but in the archive and the faq there isn't reference to this
particular instances - GET.

alan@toaster:~$ git init myrepo
Initialized empty Git repository in /home/nev/myrepo/.git/
alan@toaster:~$ cd myrepo
alan@toaster:~/myrepo$ git daemon

This is on Ubuntu, git installed fresh or built it from latest stable
source. Same on a repo that has stuff in it.

Anyone know why?

Cheers.
