Hi all, At work, I'm behind a proxy and firewall, that blocks most outgoing traffic, other than http (port 80) and https / SSL (port 443).
Because of this, I can NOT clone with git's official repository, given that operations like: git clone git://git.koha.org/pub/scm/koha.git kohaclone ... use the "git" protocol (and not the "http" protocol) that uses a different port than http /https, and thus those operations are blocked. I have worked around this limitation, by using git with the copy of the "koha.git" file available at http://repo.or.cz that, although usually lagging some hours behind the official repository at koha.org, does provide the http interface to git command line operations. So, I can do this: git clone http://repo.or.cz/r/koha.git kohaclone Unfortunately, today I'm trying to do a git fetch from that repository, and the operation seems to be hanging halfway: myhost:~/mykohaclone # git fetch Getting alternates list for http://repo.or.cz/r/koha.git Getting pack list for http://repo.or.cz/r/koha.git Getting index for pack f9c9014fe52c94a9e55c41d8b0c652a8d8b27d4d Getting index for pack 749f1fcddab3af809cc3cdfba4642dc2deebda67 Getting pack 749f1fcddab3af809cc3cdfba4642dc2deebda67 which contains d010503b803cf1888caf25f6ac150a58b663dc21 walk d010503b803cf1888caf25f6ac150a58b663dc21 walk 1c1c585073c0fc2bcbe3957f1b57e7ef4c4410fa got 4b812f1b40e635216c278c61389628f12bdcf847 walk 4b812f1b40e635216c278c61389628f12bdcf847 walk b10cd79ba32cff7130edd75bcb3f6025a0240619 Getting pack f9c9014fe52c94a9e55c41d8b0c652a8d8b27d4d which contains b6c086302bcfbeca92184465ea28f6efd3ad0738 [ ...stops (hangs) here, without any further output] So, it would be nice, at this point, if I could "switch" git to use an http interface to the official git repository at koha.org. There are some instructions regarding this setup at: Setting up a git repository which can be pushed into and pulled from over HTTP(S) http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/howto/setup-git-server-over-http.txt Do you think that this could be done? Or is it already done? I would like to avoid doing things like setting up SSH tunnels over HTTPS and the like, if possible.
