Please let me know. You tried to fetch from a http url, but your settings make no mention of running a web server. git-update-server-info is only relevant in the context of using a web server to serve git repositories via the same http protocol as is used by web servers everywhere. git-daemon, on the other hand, which is what you show configured here, is used to serve git repositories via a git:// url. Its configuration has no effect on whether using http to fetch a git repository will work or not. Either use a git:// url to fetch the project, or set up a web server which serves stuff under /pub/git. I'll also mention that you appear to have configuration for both inetd and xinetd, which are two generally mutually-exclusive 'super-servers'; and furthermore, your configurations are inconsistent in the arguments they pass to git-daemon: it looks like, were you to replace http:// with git://, the inetd config would work as listed, while xinetd would not.
