Hi,
I was trying to setup a git repository to use as a site 'alternative'
repo for various kernel projects.
I am currently using one with the .git/remotes/* method of specifying
remotes, but I decided to convert to .git/config method because of
git-remote update.
So here is what I am doing
$ git version
git version 1.5.0.1.37.g1e592
$ mkdir cache.git
$ cd cache.git
$ git init-db
$ git remote add linus git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git
$ git remote add v2.6.15.y git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-2.6.15.y.git
$ git remote add v2.6.16.y git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-2.6.16.y.git
$ git remote add v2.6.17.y git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-2.6.17.y.git
$ git remote add v2.6.18.y git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-2.6.18.y.git
$ git remote add v2.6.19.y git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-2.6.19.y.git
$ git remote add v2.6.20.y git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-2.6.20.y.git
$ git remote
linus
v2
$ git remote update
Fetching linus
...
Fetching v2
fatal: 'v2': unable to chdir or not a git archive
fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly
Cannot get the repository state from v2
fetch v2: command returned error: 1
The problem seems obvious. I have dots in my remote names, and
git-remote uses git-config to read the configuration.
Fix below.
