Trying to clone a repository in git, getting a error

问题

I have two boxes, one is my local machine and the other is my dev server. Right now I'm testing this method of deploying apps using Git

I setup my local repository, added the files then committed. I am on Windows 7 & my server is Windows Server 2008.

The server is mapped as the W:\ Drive with my 'bare' repository and my target 'mock' production folder as child folders. -- I can get to each just fine, no connection problems.

Here's what I did to setup everything:

1. Local dir git remote add origin w:\gitCentral

2. Local dir git push origin master

3. Type C:, then type CD testDeployment

4. Now I'm in my test folder.

   A. I do git clone w:/gitCentral

Cloning into gitCentral... done.
error: refs/remotes/origin/master does
not point to a valid object! error:
Trying to write ref refs/heads/master
with nonexistant object 559e2165845
06e14ebef1121059e9461a86dd4f8 fatal:
Cannot update the ref 'HEAD'.

回答1:

try to do the following (starting from your local folder, considering it is a git repo and has commits in current HEAD):

git remote add origin w:/gitCentral
git fetch origin
git push origin master
cd C:/testDeployment
git clone w:/gitCentral

回答2:

This is happening, I think, for one of two reasons:

Git wants forward slashes, not backward. Git doesn't like spaces - use quotes.

So, if your remote is "w:\Repositories\My App" Git would like to see that as "'w:/Repositories/My App'".

That's my hunch.
