Re: git clone does not work

[Mathieu Carbou <mathieu.carbou@gmail.com>]

I know that Cygwin has some forking issues with git client but just
restarting the whole interpreter works and it is not the same error.

What is weird is that:

* Cloning gp2c (git clone http://pari.math.u-bordeaux.fr/git/gp2c.git)
on Windows 7 Cygwin GIT 1.7.9 works (but takes long time).

* Cloning pari (git clone http://pari.math.u-bordeaux.fr/git/pari.git)
on Ubuntu GIT 1.7.9.5 works (but takes long time).

* Cloning pari (git clone http://pari.math.u-bordeaux.fr/git/pari.git)
on Windows 7 Cygwin GIT 1.7.9 does not work.

error: Unable to find e0584e1dd5a6c59e6bbf896a20ffabef94ed8398 under
http://pari.math.u-bordeaux.fr/git/pari.git
Cannot obtain needed object e0584e1dd5a6c59e6bbf896a20ffabef94ed8398
while processing commit 0ce3694087edb9076f1c6319bfd0b8c6f2b304c6.

It always stops at the same commit...

I took the Ubuntu clone and moved it to my Windows, and I can git pull :-)

Sorry to bother you...
