Created attachment 182573 [details] Image of error when attempting to clone a github repositry when attempting to clone a github repository using egit and ssh, I receive an error "Git repository clone failed" (see attached image snapshot9.png) When attempting to clone using the git protocol, I get further and it lists the branches. Then I get this error when attempting to clone: Git repository clone failed. Packfile corruption detected: Unknown zlib error. My system is Fedora 14, 64 bit. I am running Helios with egit 0.9.3. I have been unsuccessful cloning multiple repositories. In addition, I have no trouble cloning them with git directly from the command line in any choice of protocols (http, ssh, git).
- Could you retry with latest nightly build of egit ? - What JVM implementation are you using ? - Could you retry with a different JVM implementation ?
Thanks for the response. Tried with version 0.11.1 after having better luck on another system. Cloning from github with git protocol, got this error this time: Git repository clone failed. org.eclipse.jgit.errors.TransportException This was with: java --version java version "1.5.0" gij (GNU libgcj) version 4.5.1 20100924 (Red Hat 4.5.1-4) The system I have that's working well runs: java version "1.6.0_18" OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea6 1.8.6) (fedora-50.1.8.6.fc13-x86_64) OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 14.0-b16, mixed mode) I'll move to a newer version and confirm it's happy.
yum install java-1.6.0-openjdk And it's working now. Thank you kindly.
