Re: Meaning of "fatal: protocol error: bad line length character"?

We are using git 1.4.4.1, the latest I thought available, not 1.4.4.4
(perhaps you mis-typed?).

In any case, I personally would love to try the latest build of git,
but I don't think I can convince the rest of the company to do so.

I just got an email from one of the developers.  He seems to think
this is alleviated by using bash instead of tcsh.  He said he is
debugging his environment to see if he can isolate the problem.  I
have asked for more details and if I can find out more, I will
certainly communicate it here.

If I were to get people to agree to try the latest git build, would I
be able to just let the developer install and use it on his machine,
or would I need to also update our company repo?  If the former, I
would have a much easier time convincing them.

Thanks.
