Subject: git-core: fails to clone via http from git.debian.org with git 1.6.6

Date: Mon, 18 Jan 2010 10:25:58 -0500

Package: git-core
Version: 1:1.6.6-1
Severity: normal


$> git clone http://git.debian.org/git/pkg-exppsy/pymvpa.git  
Initialized empty Git repository in /tmp/pymvpa/.git/
fatal: http://git.debian.org/git/pkg-exppsy/pymvpa.git/info/refs?service=git-upload-pack not found: did you run git update-server-info on the server?

yes, git update-server-info  was ran.  I can clone via git or via http:// with
git prior that version (i.e. 1.6.5 which is in squeeze as of today).

I thought of  raising severity to serious because having 1.6.6 in testing
(candidate for release) would have large impact on usability of git with
debcheckout for many packages which might used http:// as the
transport...
