I guess the version of Git that you are using requests different things from the server than my version.

Peter the system that everything is hosted on, is wearing version 1.6.1.3 and the test system (same distribution) is wearing 1.7.1.
I understand. Version 1.6.1.3 is from February 2009, so is rather old.
I am making plans, perhaps further decisions to upgrade to that release. There are specific issues involved with doing so as all of us can imagine. (I'm running Slackware Linux here.)
It might be possible for you to upgrade only the git package, without needing to upgrade the full distribution.
When I ran Slackware I could download a newer package, such as:
http://slackware.mirrors.easynews.com/linux/slackware/slackware-13.37/slackw...
And then simply run
upgradepkg git-1.7.4.4-i486-1.txz
But I do not know if this still works. Could be worth a try!
