then it downloads everything fine, so I think that part of the problem is that gimplist used to be a SVN repository and I changed it to Git...
(also I missed this:
"Do not switch your repository type to Git before you are satisfied with the conversion result, so that you can re-clone if something goes wrong!"
whoops)
is anyone else able to get the files in gimplist and not just an empty directory
apologies if this is a wipemybum post but i'm stumped right now
If you are trying to convert a SVN repository to Git, you would need to create a repository locally during the conversion process, and then push that repository onto the WoWAce repository.
There is no automatic conversion being performed by WoWAce. It'll switch the type and offer an empty Git repository - until you fill it.
Git repositories are initialized as "empty", so you cannot clone them right after creation - you need to create them locally and push them to the remote storage place.
git clone git://git.wowace.com/wow/gimplist/mainline.git
it creates a folder and says that mainline is empty
I've checked to see if it's a problem with git or my setup but when i try to pull this project:
git clone git://git.wowace.com/wow/broker-followers/mainline.git
