Hm, I really do not know, and I can duplicate this myself as well. <adding the git mailing list> Does anyone know what's going on here? The stable git trees are created by doing: git clone -s --bare from Linus's main tree to the stable tree repo location. It looks like git over http isn't following the link somehow to the main repo? Or is what is necessary to do is to clone Linus's tree and then pull from the stable tree in this kind of situation (where the user can only use git over http?) thanks, greg k-h -- 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
