Description Jacek Caban 2005-11-27 10:52:28 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.
