Bug#808762: 'remote: error: unable to update info/refs+' when pushing to a repo on alioth

[Florent Rougon <f.rougon@free.fr>]

Package: tracker.debian.org
Severity: normal

Hello,

I got the error cited in the subject when doing 'git push' for the fgo Git
repo hosted on alioth:

% git push

Delta compression using up to 8 threads.
Compressing objects: 100% (4/4), done.

The commit seems to have worked, but I thought it would be good to know what
caused this error message. My apologies if this is not the right place for
such a report.

Thanks
