I have heard that pseudo resets the PATH so you are invoking "git"
from
one of those standard system PATH, perhaps /usr/bin.

myusername/scientia/scientia.git'

This is saying that "git" on the local side (the one you are running
"clone" on) couldn't find its "index-pack" subcommand. Why?
I think this is an issue with your RHEL5 box, not the MacOS box. A
quick
check that might be useful is to type:
$ git index-pack
$ sudo git index-pack
Here is the result:
===
$ git index-pack
usage: git index-pack [-v] [-o <index-file>] [{ ---keep | --
keep=<msg> }] [--strict] { <pack-file> | --stdin [--fix-thin] [<pack-
file>] }
$ sudo git index-pack
usage: git index-pack [-v] [-o <index-file>] [{ ---keep | --
keep=<msg> }] [--strict] { <pack-file> | --stdin [--fix-thin] [<pack-
file>] }
===
So git is apparently found. HOWEVER, if I do this, it's a different
story:
===
$ which git
/usr/local/bin/git
$ sudo which git
which: no git in (/usr/bin:/bin)
===
On that evidence, I reissued my problem command under sudo,
specifying /usr/local/bin/git as the command. That worked. Thank you;
I would not have found it without you.
I'm obviously ignorant on the path issue, but that's off-topic for
this list.
Thanks again.
