I've had similar error messages and they resolved themselves within a relatively short time.

Can i git-pull if I'm building a newer kernel? I had speakup patches for 2.6.24 but now I'm trying to build a 2.6.25 kernel. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 11+ messages in thread

I ran git-pull on another machine and that finished w/o generating an error message. So then i tarred up the speakup directory and untarred it on the target machine. Then I re-ran git-pull and it said speakup is up to date. Then I ran the installer and it said 'speakup is installed to /usr/src/linux-2.6.25/'. I guess all that remains to be seen is if i get a tlaking kernel out of it. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 11+ messages in thread

Try William Hubbs' speakup mirror at: git://hubbs.homedns.org/speakup.git I had similar issues with the linux-speakup.org repository, but William's mirror worked fine for me.

This is because you're using git-pull. Git-pull is for updating an already-cloned repository. You want instead: git-clone git://hubbs.homedns.org/speakup.git.

Even though I had already done that on Wednesday? I was trying to update my local copy of the repository. My understanding was that this was the proper method, as you also seem to indicate above, although my knowledge of git is quite limited, and so it may be that you mean something else. So, on Wednesday I ran "git-clone git://hubbs.homedns.org/speakup.git": what do I do in order to cause my local version to pickup any changes, if git-pull is the wrong utility?

You want to cd into the directory created by that initial git-clone. It's called speakup. Then just do a git-pull, without any arguments. The git repository to use is already encoded in the directory and files in it, no need to do anything else. It'll update to the latest code. Hope this helps, Zack. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 11+ messages in thread

The directory was the problem--I was running it from above, because I had thought the .git directory had been created one level higher than the repository (something while I was cloaning gave me that impression). Tried from the proper cwd, and working fine. Regards, Luke ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 11+ messages in thread
