You are right in that cloning an empty repository would be nice to have as it would save having to remember to do about 8 different commands. Then again, after digging through the source for half an hour I'm still not sure I even understand what's going on, let alone know how to fix it ;). You should ask on #git for cloning empty dir support, maybe it'll annoy Dscho enough to fix it. -- Cheers, Sverre Rabbelier -- 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
