clone on bare local repository fails

By tanj.t... on July 07, 2009 21:36 (imported from Google Code)


What steps will reproduce the problem?

  1. create a bare repository ( git init --bare )
  2. clone it via context menu

What is the expected output?
repository would be cloned

What do you see instead?

clone failed with:

git.exe clone -v "Z:\Junk\junk.git" "C:\PowerCore\junk2"

fatal: 'Z:\Junk\junk.git" C:\PowerCore\junk2' does not appear to be a git
repository
Initialized empty Git repository in c:/PowerCore/junk2/.git/
fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
TortoiseGit-0.8.1.0-32bit
msysgit: Git-1.6.3.2-preview20090608

XP Pro SP3

Please provide any additional information below.

I am able to clone the bare repo using msysgit bash and then I am able to
work with tortoise.

Looks like there is an extra " in the repo path.
