问题
I'm trying to checkout part of remote git repository. As recommended here, with help of command
git archive --format=zip --remote=http://path_to_repository
But I'm getting error message:
fatal: Operation not supported by protocol.
Unexpected end of command stream
Git is not supporting this operation with http protocol? Thats a problem of hosting environment or git itself? Any directions would help, thanks.
回答1:
git archive can work with a server with git protocol support (i.e. git server, smart-http and ssh server).
In your case, either your git is too old, or the server is dumb http server (normal http server, without "smart" git support). You need to clone the repository and archive from there.
回答2:
you can't use git achieve with http! only git protocol. i.e.
git archive --format=zip --remote=git://path_to_repository
