I think it is just spelled: echo $reference_repo >>.git/objects/info/alternates git fetch We need "--reference" with clone because that first line needs to happen after clone runs "git init" but before it runs "git fetch". And if you cloned with --reference, of course, the alternates file remains and further fetches will automatically use it. -Peff -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
