Hello, I am encountering a bizarre error message trying to push a branch to a new remote over SSH. The error message is
fatal: packfile name 'remotehost.com' does not end with '.pack' Here, remotehost.com is the internet domain name of the remote host I'm trying to push to. Obviously pushing to SSH remotes isn't broken generally, so I think this is caused by some bad state in my repository. But the error message seems odd enough that I think I might be encountering a bug. If anyone has any hints on how to resolve this, I'd really appreciate it. On my laptop, which is running OS X: $ git fsck Checking object directories: 100% (256/256), done. Checking objects: 100% (398/398), done. $ ssh remotehost.com "git init ~/git/my_repo --bare" Initialized empty Git repository in /home/user/git/my_repo/ $ git remote add remotehost ssh://remotehost.com/home/user/git/my_repo $ git push remotehost master Counting objects: 405, done.
