I have setup an ssh client with .ssh/config data und want local PC use an mountet cifs Filesystem User can write on cifs , but clone fails if user is in mountet dir:

git clone ssh://git/*#+*/bricktech.git bricktech

Cloning into '/mnt/dira/dir-01/FRITZ/bricktech'...
remote: Enumerating objects: 27, done.
remote: Counting objects: 100% (27/27), done.
remote: Compressing objects: 100% (23/23), done.
remote: Total 27 (delta 4), reused 0 (delta 0), pack-reused 0
fatal: --stdin requires a git repository
fatal: fetch-pack: invalid index-pack output

git version 2.31.1

if the user in the home dir

git clone ssh://git/*#+*/bricktech.git bricktech
Klone nach 'bricktech' ...
remote: Enumerating objects: 27, done.
remote: Counting objects: 100% (27/27), done.

Empfange Objekte: 100% (27/27), 15.64 KiB | 5.21 MiB/s, fertig.
Löse Unterschiede auf: 100% (4/4), fertig.

works .....

/etc/fstab:

serverip/dir /mnt/fb-jahn cifs username=****,password=*****,vers=1.0,gid=100,uid=1000,file_mode=0644,dir_mode=0755,noauto,users 0 0

maybe wrong mode ??

    Can you run that command (the failed one) setting language to english? Like `LANG=en git clone ssh://git/*#+*/bricktech.git bricktech` so that we get english output. (In my case, you can also use LANG=es, but I don't think that will hold water here either XD). – eftshift0 Jul 29 '21 at 14:24

The error message translates to "not a Git repository", which is coming from commands that git clone runs after writing the various Git files to create a new, empty Git repository, followed by reading data from the remote Git to get pack files to put into the new repository to make it non-empty.

The fact that git index-pack believes that the new Git repository is not a Git repository indicates that the underlying file system is not working correctly. It's not possible to say, from this alone, what about the underlying file system isn't working correctly, but CIFS / Samba has been reported to work. Other users say there are problems.

Note that while SMB (or Samba) is not CIFS, it is something of a superset. I avoid Windows and don't know if anyone actually uses raw CIFS any more. A lot may depend on your particular server, which you did not mention.

(SSH itself is not relevant here, and I removed the tag.)

  • the server is an AVM FRITZ Router - and there ist only version 1.0 SMB implementet - i think i try ftp :-) the other supportet protokoll - or go over an external USB Drive ... or just buy an Raspberry and run it as an NAS .... – Susanne Wäsche Jul 30 '21 at 06:11
  • mount curl ftp - fails - other filesystem other error :-) Cloning into 'bricktech'... error: Unable to create '/mnt/fb-jahn/bricktech/.git/HEAD.lock': Operation not supported – Susanne Wäsche Jul 30 '21 at 07:03
