Hi all,

I've "setup-a-msysgit-server-with-copssh-on-windows", following Tim Davis' guide and I was now learning how to use the git commands, following Jason Meridth's guide, and I have managed to get everything working fine, but now I can't pass the push command.

I have set the server and the client on the same machine (for now), win7-x64.

Here is some info of how things are set up:

CopSSH Folder     : C:/SSH/
Local Home Folder : C:/Users/rvc/
Remote Home Folder: C:/SSH/home/rvc/          # aka /cygdrive/c/SSH/home/rvc/
git remote rep    : C:/SSH/home/rvc/myapp.git # empty rep

At '/SSH/home/rvc/.bashrc' and 'Users/rvc/.bashrc':

export HOME=/cygdrive/c/SSH/home/rvc
gitpath='/cygdrive/c/Program Files (x86)/Git/bin'    
gitcorepath='/cygdrive/c/Program Files (x86)/Git/libexec/git-core'
PATH=${gitpath}:${gitcorepath}:${PATH}

So, cloning works (everything bellow is done via "Git Bash here" :P):

rvc@RVC-DESKTOP /c/code
$ git clone ssh://[email protected]:5858/SSH/home/rvc/myapp.git
Initialized empty Git repository in C:/code/myapp/.git/
warning: You appear to have cloned an empty repository.

rvc@RVC-DESKTOP /c/code
$ cd myapp

rvc@RVC-DESKTOP /c/code/myapp (master)
$ git remote -v
origin  ssh://[email protected]:5858/SSH/home/rvc/myapp.git (fetch)
origin  ssh://[email protected]:5858/SSH/home/rvc/myapp.git (push)

Then I create a file:

rvc@RVC-DESKTOP /c/code/myapp (master)
$ touch test.file

rvc@RVC-DESKTOP /c/code/myapp (master)
$ ls
test.file

Try to push it and get this error:

rvc@RVC-DESKTOP /c/code/myapp (master)
$ git add test.file

rvc@RVC-DESKTOP /c/code/myapp (master)
$ GIT_TRACE=1 git push origin master
trace: built-in: git 'push' 'origin' 'master'

git: '/SSH/home/rvc/myapp.git' is not a git command. See 'git --help'.
fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly

"git: '/SSH/home/rvc/myapp.git' is not a git command. See 'git --help'." .. what?!

So, can anybody help? If you need any aditional information that I've missed, just ask.

Thanks in advanced.

EDIT: RAAAGE!!

I'm having the same problem again, but now with ssh:

rvc@RVC-DESKTOP /c/code/myapp (master)
$ GIT_TRACE=1 git push
trace: built-in: git 'push'
trace: run_command: 'ssh' '-p' '5885' '[email protected]' 'git-receive-pack '\''/
SSH/home/rvc/myapp.git'\'''
git: '/SSH/home/rvc/myapp.git' is not a git command. See 'git --help'.
fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly

I've tried GUI push, and shows the same message.

git: '/SSH/home/rvc/myapp.git' is not a git command. See 'git --help'.
Pushing to ssh://[email protected]:5885/SSH/home/rvc/myapp.git
fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly

Here's the currents .bashrc:

C:\Users\rvc.bashrc (I think this is used only by cygwin/git bash):

export HOME=/c/SSH/home/rvc

gitpath='/c/Program Files (x86)/Git/bin'

gitcorepath='/c/Program Files (x86)/Git/libexec/git-core'
export GIT_EXEC_PATH=${gitcorepath}

PATH=${gitpath}:${gitcorepath}:${PATH}

C:\SSH\home\rvc.bashrc (.. and this is used when git connects via ssh to the "remote" server):

export HOME=/c/SSH/home/rvc

gitpath='/cygdrive/c/Program Files (x86)/Git/bin'

gitcorepath='/cygdrive/c/Program Files (x86)/Git/libexec/git-core'
export GIT_EXEC_PATH=${gitcorepath}

PATH=${gitpath}:${gitcorepath}:${PATH}
