Firstly i have to say that my git jitsu is not strong.

Is the received immediately or after some time of hanging?

If the former i would suspect a problem with the handshake while using a shallow scope. In the latter case it could be timing out because of the size of the tree or a particular file in the tree. This can happen when pushing larger git files over http protocol. Perhaps you could try adding something like: git config http.postBuffer 524288000

Try using https if it is supported.

Tim, all,

 I am working on build scripts that will individually pull or update the source
by pulling code from the git tree. To make this more efficient for building
individual modules (and reduce unneeded bandwidth), it is recommended to use the
git clone form:

git clone --depth 1 http://scm.trinitydesktop.org/scm/git/whatever

 But http://scm.trinitydesktop.org/scm/git/ refuses to allow '--depth 1' to be
used in the git clone. Anybody know why? The error received is:

Cloning into 'libart-lgpl'...
error: RPC failed; result=22, HTTP code = 500
fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly

 It works fine without the --depth limitation. What say the 'git' masters?
