git repo down?

[Kevin Oberman]

I am trying to clone the ports repo (latest) with:

git clone https://git.freebsd.org/ports.git /usr/ports

It sits for 5 minutes (eating 99& of a single thread) and exits with:

error: RPC failed; HTTP 504 curl 22 The requested URL returned error: 504

fatal: expected 'packfile'

Is there a problem or am I doing something wrong?

Hi!

Has your problem been solved?

I just tried the exact same command which did not failed. It took about 2 minutes to download and a bit more to resolve deltas.

You might try with the verbose flag, or with —depth 1 to debug your problem, which is also way faster.

git clone https://git.freebsd.org/ports.git /usr/ports --verbose --progress --depth 1 Cloning into '/usr/ports'...

Many thanks! Just tried it again and it downloads and unpacks just fine. I have no idea why it was failing (timeut), but its working now.
