Git-instaweb and git-clone

Question

I am installing git web server on my local machine using git -instaweb.

Now I want to be able to clone from these repositories, but when I tried

git clone http://localhost:1234 this gives me an error:

 fatal: http://localhost:1234/info/refs not found: did you run git update-server-info on the server? 

git update-server-info did not help. Anyone have a solution?

Thanks in advance.

Git instaweb is designed to view the repository in a web browser, and not from where you can clone. Try going http: // localhost: 1234 to your web browser to see.

If you want to clone something, you can search for git-daemon .
