I didn't make any archive... and for the git clone you could try the url "Git read-only" :

Code:

git clone git://github.com/twidi/GRead.git

There is one, so github must make it automatically.

... and for the git clone you could try the url "Git read-only" :
Code:
git clone git://github.com/twidi/GRead.git

Exactly what I did (re-check my post) & resulted in the error.

Maybe you didn't, but GitHub does it for you : just click the "Download source" button up right, choose between zip and tar, and that's it... WorksForMe :-)

But the http protocol should work as well. Maye there is something wrong with the git installation?

BTW: whats about the new version? Any new info when it could possibly be released?

Right

Got it now

But still doesn't work:

Code:

git clone git://github.com/twidi/GRead.git
warning: templates not found /home/builder3/maemo-fremantle-armel-extras-devel/work/git-1.6.5.7/debian/git/usr/share/git-core/templates

BTW, this is done on the device itself, not that that should make a difference.

Thats what I ment. It is no difference whatever protocol you choose.

Which git package do have installed? Did you try cloning other git repositories?

That should not make any difference but that should work so the try needed to be done

Not that I want to beat this to death, but it works fine on my (linux) PC, so there must be something wrong or missing with git on the N900.

There was quite a bit of difference using the different protocols however. While the program source (the src & zoomkeys directories) are the same (as they should be) the HTTP protocol seems to draw down a of "cruft" into the .git directory than GIT. Not a problem, just an observation.

Thanks for the help.
