git clone https://tangled.sh/@tangled.sh/core fails: "protocol error: bad line length character: fata" #332

open opened by

Hi Team 👋,

I’m experiencing an issue when attempting to clone the core repository.

Description#

When I try to perform a standard git clone https://tangled.sh/@tangled.sh/core, the process fails with the following error:

$ git clone https://tangled.sh/@tangled.sh/core
Cloning into 'core'...
fatal: protocol error: bad line length character: fata
fatal: the remote end hung up unexpectedly

Workarounds#

Interestingly, I've found two workarounds that allow me to successfully clone the repository:

Shallow Clone: Using --depth=1 allows the clone to complete without errors:#

	$ git clone --depth=1 https://tangled.sh/@tangled.sh/core
	Cloning into 'core'...
	remote: Enumerating objects: 206, done.
	remote: Counting objects: 100% (206/206), done.
	remote: Compressing objects: 100% (180/180), done.
	remote: Total 206 (delta 26), reused 50 (delta 12), pack-reused 0
	Receiving objects: 100% (206/206), 157.09 KiB | 2.12 MiB/s, done.
	Resolving deltas: 100% (26/26), done.

Single Branch Clone: Cloning with --single-branch also resolves the issue:#

$ git clone --single-branch https://tangled.sh/@tangled.sh/core
Cloning into 'core'...
remote: Enumerating objects: 4149, done.
remote: Counting objects: 100% (4149/4149), done.

remote: Total 4149 (delta 3024), reused 2685 (delta 1883), pack-reused 0
Receiving objects: 100% (4149/4149), 14.33 MiB | 26.83 MiB/s, done.
Resolving deltas: 100% (3024/3024), done.

Reproduction Steps & Logs#

I was able to consistently reproduce the issue using the Docker image alpine:3.21 with git version 2.47.2:
