Progress. :) Interesting.
The message comes from "main" in git.c:
if (!prefixcmp(cmd, "git-")) {
cmd += 4;
argv[0] = cmd;
handle_internal_command(argc, argv);
die("cannot handle %s internally", cmd);
}
Perhaps you have inetd set up to try to run git with argv[0] set
to git-daemon? git-daemon (daemon.c) has its own "main" so it
would take something of that nature to produce this symptom.
Maybe something like this would have made diagnosis easier.
