FWIW, I would like git to clone empty repositories too. With the current smart remotes handling, it will pick up the first branches as they appear in the other repository automagically. And with e.g. repo.or.cz, if you are starting a project from scratch this would be useful. Sure, you can instead git init && git remote add origin git+ssh://.../, but this fact seems to be confusing not-so-git-well-versed people. Now, I guess you'd like a patch... ;-) -- Petr "Pasky" Baudis Early to rise and early to bed makes a male healthy and wealthy and dead. -- James Thurber - 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
