Cloning/pulling over http:// is somewhat inefficient and is a *lot* more fragile than using the git:// protocol. <http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/howto/setup-git-server-over-http.txt> HTH, gvb _______________________________________________ Koha-devel mailing list Koha-devel@lists.koha.org http://lists.koha.org/mailman/listinfo/koha-devel
