Today (11-Aug-2010), I tried to do a git Koha clone over http, from the Koha Community's Git repository ("git.koha-community.org"). I'm cloning over http, instead of using the native "git" protocol, because my Koha server (a virtual machine running SUSE Linux - SLES 11) is behind a restrictive firewall.
Couldn't you change the firewall to allow tcp port 9418, or forward that port over a ssh connection? I think it will give faster service. [...]
Am I doing something wrong, or is it necessary that someone, like Galen, runs "git update-server-info on the server" again ("server" being the git server running at "git.koha-community.org")? If running again this command on the git server is necessary, would it be possible to run that as a cronjob in that git server, to prevent that this problem happens again (or is that a bad idea, for some reason)?
After much searching for something I half-remembered, I discovered http://stats.workbuffer.org/irclog/koha/2010-08-11#i_484170 where Galen says "clone over http is now working again" and "it was a change in the apache config that broke it; few enough users of clone-over-http that I don't thnk anybody had noticed" but you already know that.
