Aaaahaaa, Bernt is our git god :) That's exactly the reason for failing to create repos it seems. I remember, it head to do with `HEAD'! Thanks a lot. Now I only have to find out how to add that option to a modern system, that uses no fstab for USB devices. Google should shed light on this quickly. Even if I like monotone, I still don't like to use two systems for one project. Now I can use git for git projects, which is nice.
