Git Clone does not support UNC path

By clan... on February 05, 2009 11:16 (imported from Google Code)


Problem found at Commit Hash: 6c261f38
REL_0.3.0.0_INTERNAL

What steps will reproduce the problem?

  1. In TGit clone enter a UNC path (\server\path\file.git) as the existing
    repository url
  2. Enter valid directory for desination
  3. Click OK

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The clone fails as the url passed to git.exe is incorrect. Error is of the form
fatal: failed to open C:/<current directory>/\server\path\file.git/objects

Running git clone manually passing it //server/path/file.git works ok.

I imagine any other operation that could take a UNC path will also fail.
