Thread: Git: Unable to get pack file

Hi,


I tried getting the source using:

git clone http://git.postgresql.org/git/postgresql.git postgresql-git

but after a while (252MB) I always get:

[...]
Getting pack 61e1395a5bdacda95de5432123a0f8124fff05e6
which contains 476418893d3a2f366f47dbe4ce6d7522cc427545
error: Unable to get pack file

while processing commit ee6ddc7575ab1ce16d8f4eb2cdbcc525d43a6437.

I'm behind proxy/firewall, so I used the "http://" protocol.

wget http://git.postgresql.org/git/postgresql.git/objects/pack/pack-61e1395a5bdacda95de5432123a0f8124fff05e6.pack

works...

What am I doing wrong?

I've re-run git repack on it, please try again. At least that file is
accessible from here now..
