cloning the git repository on mac os x troubles

[jdhorner]

Following this guide:

http://www.scorpius-project.org/mumble-osx-dev/

I get to step 2 "The Easy Way"

I downloaded the file located here, as instructed:

http://www.scorpius-project.org/mumble-osx-dev/MumbleDeveloper.tar.bz2

and extracted it to the root folder of my hard drive. While in / in terminal, I executed the "mumble-x86-64-build-env" build environment shell script. It was successful. From there, I followed the next step, to run the following four commands:

git clone git://mumble.git.sourceforge.net/gitroot/mumble mumble.git

cd mumble.git

git submodule init

git submodule update

However, it fails at the first of the four, with the following error message:

Cloning into mumble.git...

fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly

Everything I've read about this issue talks of configuring things on the REMOTE server, but I obviously cannot access that, and do not know how to proceed from here. I have the Mac OS developer tools installed, and everything seems as though it should work, but I can't clone the git repository. Any clues?

I believe you've solved this, but the Mumble repo is now hosted at GitHub:

https://github.com/mumble-voip/mumble

The one-liner to clone the repo and all the submodules is therefore:

git clone --recursive git://github.com/mumble-voip/mumble.git mumble.git
