Hello,

Savannah switched to the new servers on Feb 8th,
and now cloning emacs over raw HTTP works:

  $ time git clone http://git.sv.gnu.org/r/emacs.git
  Cloning into 'emacs'...
  remote: Counting objects: 784699, done.
  remote: Compressing objects: 100% (142579/142579), done.
  remote: Total 784699 (delta 642218), reused 783411 (delta   641221)
  Receiving objects: 100% (784699/784699), 235.06 MiB | 1.96   MiB/s, done.
  Resolving deltas: 100% (642218/642218), done.
  Checking connectivity... done.

Confirmed. I can recreate this problem using http. On the server to itself for that manor. This appears to be a bug in the git http transport. Probably due to the large size of the emacs repository. It works okay using the new server.

Hello,

I'm getting the following error while trying to clone the Emacs git repository via HTTP protocol:

 $ git clone http://git.sv.gnu.org/r/emacs.git
  Cloning into 'emacs'...
  remote: Counting objects: 780227, done.
  remote: aborting due to possible repository corruption on the remote side.
  fatal: protocol error: bad pack header

The problems does not happen only to me:

Could you take a look?  TIA
