Hi Dear Linux enthusiasts,

I recently (yesterday) began to fetch (clone, fetch, ...) the current
  Linux GIT repository:
    http://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git

I first failed to fetch it through any protocol ( git:// , http:// , https:// )
  because of my UNRELIABLE WiFi connexion.

I eventually managed to download the following file :

And all these .pack and .idx files appear to be valid ones, with
respect to the "git verify-pack" command.

This set of files seems to be consistent with the current state (by that time)
  of the Linux git repository (torvalds/linux-2.6.git)

Now, I would like YOU to tell ME how I can checkout from the PACKs
I've just downloaded.

How may I populate the working directory , objects/xy/... , refs/... ,
... hierarchies to
  make my (local) repository usable.

I suspect I shall find this information in documentation related to
the "git fetch" command,
  but I haven't managed to get it right.

Your HELP is very welcome.


If you prefer not to pollute LKML, you may choose to aswer me at:

Thanks in advance,

Valentin

One traditionally uses "git clone
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git
linux-2.6" to create a local copy of the Linux 2.6 tree. You, surely,
weren't downloading those PACK files individually were you?

I was forced to download these files manually over http://, and thus
individually , because of my troublesome WiFi connexion.

Please, help me to get good value from the files (~450 MiB) I've downloaded.

You would be gentle to show me the steps which will make me get a
usable local git repository.

Thanks in advance.

Sincerely,

Valentin

I think you'll get a really swift and helpful response if you contact
the git mailing list instead:

Hi Dear Linux enthusiasts,

I recently (yesterday) began to fetch (clone, fetch, ...) the current
  Linux GIT repository:
    http://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git

I first failed to fetch it through any protocol ( git:// , http:// , https:// )

And all these .pack and .idx files appear to be valid ones, with
respect to the "git verify-pack" command.

This set of files seems to be consistent with the current state (by that time)
  of the Linux git repository (torvalds/linux-2.6.git)

Now, I would like YOU to tell ME how I can checkout from the PACKs
I've just downloaded.

How may I populate the working directory , objects/xy/... , refs/... ,
... hierarchies to
  make my (local) repository usable.

I suspect I shall find this information in documentation related to
the "git fetch" command,
  but I haven't managed to get it right.

Your HELP is very welcome.


If you prefer not to pollute LKML, you may choose to aswer me at:

Thanks in advance,

Valentin

What happens if you lay out your repo like the urls? I.e. without the
"http://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git"

I 1st want to thank you for this suggestion.

However,

This was one of the 1st things I tried in order to get a
fully-functional repository.

I think that I should be able to re-construct the whole repository from
this set of a few .pack files (450MiB) I just downloaded.
    ( .idx files are only there for optimization purpose )

How can I do that ?

    ! THAT'S THE QUESTION !

Yet,

I thank you for your answer.

Sincerely,

Valentin

Ok, so what happened when you tried? What did 'git fsck' tell you? If
it doesn't error out, try running 'git repack' followed by 'git
checkout -t origin/master'?

Once you put the downloaded *.pack and *.idx files on the
.git/objects/pack directory you should be able to just run `git fetch'
to complete your repository clone.

Hello friend,
        I remember that i just do the command 'git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git', then i get the linus's git tree.
        Maybe it is useful to you.

	Thanks.
	Best Regards.
	Harry Wei.
