I'm already using the latest version (1.5.1) of git but the error still
persists.
A "http 404" error usually reports that something is missing on the server.
In fact, if I copy the URL above to web browser, the same error occurs.
Question:
Do
git://git.kernel.org
and http://www.kernel.org <-- Note the *www*(!)
physically access the same repository? Or is the http server maybe just
a mirror of the git server (which could mean that the two could be out of sync)
If all fails I could harass our company's network admins to open
the git port in the firewall :-) but I'd prefer to fetch the tree
via http.
Any advice? Is there anyone else who is using Linus' tree via http?
Many thanks and kind regards,
Gerald
