Unfortunately at least one version of libcurl has a bug causing it to include "Accept: */*" in the same POST request where we have already asked for "Accept: application/x-git-upload-pack-response". This is a bug in libcurl, not Git, or our test vector. The application has explicitly asked the server for a single content type, but libcurl has mistakenly also told the server the client application will accept */*, which is any content type. Based on the libcurl change log, this "Accept: */*" header bug may have been fixed in version 7.18.1 released March 30, 2008: http://curl.haxx.se/changes.html#7_18_1 Rather than require users to upgrade libcurl we change the test vector to trim this line out of the 2nd request.

Tarmigan, your libcurl is broken, it looks like a newer version fixes the problem, so I would suggest upgrading it. t/t5551-http-fetch.sh | 3 +++ 1 files changed, 3 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-) diff --git a/t/t5551-http-fetch.sh b/t/t5551-http-fetch.sh index 6b0165c..9d59065 100755 --- a/t/t5551-http-fetch.sh +++ b/t/t5551-http-fetch.sh @@ -61,6 +61,9 @@ test_expect_success 'clone http repository' ' /^> User-Agent: /d /^> Host: /d + /^> POST /,$ { + /^> Accept: [*]\\/[*]/d + } s/^> Content-Length: .*/> Content-Length: xxx/ /^00..want /d /^00.*done/d -- 1.6.5.2.351.g09432 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
