can't git-clone liberation-fonts

[Denis Jacquerye]

The command "git-clone
http://git.fedorahosted.org/git/liberation-fonts.git" gives the
following warning and leaves an empty liberation-fonts directory

warning: remote HEAD refers to nonexistent ref, unable to checkout.

Cheers,

I see the same thing here... no idea what it means however.

Perhaps ask on a git support list?

If you use the git protocol instead of http the checkout works (just
re-tested successfully a few seconds ago with git 1.5.4.3):
git clone git://git.fedorahosted.org/git/liberation-fonts.git

Looking forward to what your Liberation branches will have :-)
