If you know /path/to/repos/project.git is what you want to access, any "attempting to learn Git" person would do more straight-forward "git clone ssh://myserver/path/to/repos/project.git", or "git clone myserver:/path/to/repos/project.git" which is even better (it is shorter to type and is a more natural form to spell ssh transport). ;-) -- 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
