Description Jacek Caban 2005-11-27 09:36:34 UTC

Running git without curl installed gives following error:

defaulting to local storage area
/usr/bin/git-clone: line 26: curl: command not found
Cannot get remote repository information.
Perhaps git-update-server-info needs to be run there?

Installing curl solves the problem.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Uninstall curl (if installed)
2. Run git clone

Actual Results:  
I get error:

defaulting to local storage area
/usr/bin/git-clone: line 26: curl: command not found
Cannot get remote repository information.
Perhaps git-update-server-info needs to be run there?

Expected Results:  
Clone repository.

You have to add the use flag "curl". If you don't, git-http-{push,pull} won't be
built and http:// protocol won't work either...
