Clone failed

Clone failed

[Xiao Ni]

Hi all

   Could you help me about this? I tried to git clone git://git.neil.brown.name/md.git.
But it always failed. I tried to search the way to resolve this, but I don't find the 
right method.

[root@dhcp-12-129 aprilava]# git clone git://neil.brown.name/md
Initialized empty Git repository in /home/neil/md/.git/
remote: fatal: Out of memory, realloc failed
remote: aborting due to possible repository corruption on the remote side.
fatal: early EOF
fatal: index-pack failed

   What should I do? Could you help me?

Best Regards
Xiao

You would probably be more successful if you cloned linux from some local git
tree and then just 'fetch'ed or 'pull'ed from my tree.

It seems that fetching the full tree now requires over a gigabyte of memory
on the server, and my VM only had that much.
I've added some swap so it should cope now if you really want to clone
entirely from my tree.
