Hmm, I wonder if this is related to msysgit's "Cannot fetch to mapped
network drives (Samba)" issue here:
http://code.google.com/p/msysgit/issues/detail?id=130
Please note that the msysgit issue tracker is closed, so you should not
place any comments there. Post to the msysgit mailing list instead.
Thank you for the link.
I am not using msysgit. My client is Fedora Linux 16 using git version
1.7.7.6. What excuse can I use to post to the msysgit mailing list for
this non-msys git problem?
I tried a git fetch as mentioned in the ticket and it fails with the
below error message (same as git clone/git push).
[emanuel@f16machine /mnt/win2003share/frog.git]$ git fetch ~/proj/frog/
remote: Counting objects: 18, done.
remote: Compressing objects: 100% (16/16), done.
fatal: error when closing sha1 file: Bad file descriptor
I tried the suggestion in comment #14, which links to
http://marc.info/?l=git&m=123797834905157&w=2 That is a very interesting
email thread, but the suggestions do not solve the problem.
Doing git config core.fsyncobjectfiles = true on both source and
destination git repositories makes no difference. Same error.
My cifs server OS is not samba on Linux, but a windows 2003 server.
A comment in the linked ticket claims that he only has problems on linux
samba shares, not on windows shares. The ticket says it was eventually
fixed on the server side. Is windows 2003 broken? Do I need to upgrade
to windows 2008 to use git over cifs shares?
Thanks for your time.
Kind Regards,
