Seems fine. While verifying this I got this error. jgit push sftp://me@calhost/home/me/tmp/cb/.git master:master Counting objects: 20464 Compressing objects: 100% (20464/20464) Writing objects: 100% (20464/20464) fatal: Can't write /home/me/tmp/cb/.git/objects/../HEAD: Failure fatal: sftp://me@localhost/home/me/tmp/cb/.git: cannot create HEAD It seems the remote repo is OK and actually has handsome HEAD despite this. More related, I also noted that the git:// ssh or file: clone calculates the CRC's separately and wasn't subject to this bug. -- robin -- 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
