OK, I got the ssh part of the problem resolved, thanks to your help. Now, I'm trying to get things set up properly with git repositories. After looking at the csorensen fork, I have discovered that all of the necessary changes are there.
So I decided I wanted to get the csorensen fork. I decided to use git clone, since I knew how that should work. [EMAIL PROTECTED] gitTest]$ git clone git://repo.or.cz/lilypond/csorensen.git Initialized empty Git repository in /home/carl/gitTest/csorensen/.git/ remote: Counting objects: 241842, done. remote: Compressing objects: 100% (49533/49533), done. remote: Total 241842 (delta 191830), reused 241813 (delta 191815) Receiving objects: 100% (241842/241842), 80.64 MiB | 1143 KiB/s, done. Resolving deltas: 100% (191830/191830), done. Warning: Remote HEAD refers to nonexistent ref, unable to checkout. But I haven't got any files in my csorensen/ directory (which I would expect, since I couldn't checkout the branch). Is there anything I can do to fix this? The files _are_ on repo.or.cz; I've looked at them successfully. I found a thread <http://groups.google.com/group/linux.debian.bugs.dist/browse_thread/thread/603c8a9394fc073d> that says "This apparently cannot be fixed locally, the only way to clone the repo from the remote server is to edit the remote *.git/HEAD file to point to a valid branch. " I have no idea how to get started on this. Can you give me any suggestions?
