Cloning from git

[uncle_fungus]

This might be a really stupid question, but I can't work out for the life of me how to do it.

How do I clone the pts git repository to track changes?

git-clone http://www.phorogit.com/repo/phoronix-test-suite.git

Ah, that was the bit I was after. Am I just being blind, or is the repo address actually published somewhere?

Cheers

I had a hard time finding this url too... it should be found somewhere on this page methinks, like the fdo and kernel.org repos.

Is anyone else pulling from git in a non-US timezone?

I'm in UTC+1, and git-pull doesn't recognise any changes to the git tree until at least 3-4 hours after the commits have been made.

[Michael]

Try pulling now. Sometimes running git-update-server-info manually on the server fixes the problem.

[uncle_fungus]

That's fixed it. Thanks.

Michael, can you run git-update-server-info as I'm stuck several commits behind again?

    Add another flac (SourceForge) mirror for encode-flac.

At time of writing I'm 10 commits behind.

Edit: From http://git.or.cz/gitwiki/GitFaq#head...2341b64378a5f6

My HTTP repository has updates, which git clone misses. What happened?

If you push via SSH to the repository, you have to enable the post-update hook (chmod a+x hooks/post-update). If you "push" with rsync, you have to make sure to execute git-update-server-info _before_ pushing. HTTP is a "dumb" transport, which needs some help. This help is provided in the form of the file info/refs, which contains the current refs (names + commit names of the tips).

Ran it again manually... I also redid the chmod on it, even though I believe I had done that before already.

[uncle_fungus]

Thanks, that's worked for all the commits until 22.30 server-time, but I still can't pull the latest commit.
