Hi all,
I have set a git repository on a hosted public site:
http://digilander.libero.it/mcostalba/scm/qgit.git
I cannot run any process (read git-daemon) on that site, so git-clone uses
a 'dumb server' type protocol and this is what I got.
$ git clone http://digilander.libero.it/mcostalba/scm/qgit.git
error: File 8dea03519e75f47da91108330dde3043defddd60

The above mentioned error belongs to git requests a non existing object
(8dea03519e75f47da91108330dde3043defddd60) _and_ the site answers with
a pre-canned 'page not found' html page instead of reporting 404 error.
After some research I found it is quite common for public hosting
sites to use a pre-canned
'Sorry, no page here' html stuff instead of 404.
So my request is if it is possible for git to _learn_ this and to
avoid been fooled by
these kind of public sites.
Thanks
Marco
