It looks like something is amiss with git on armv7 alpha1: Running root@generic:/ # pkg install git-lite seemed to work without error, and running root@generic:/ # git clone -o freebsd https://git.FreeBSD.org/src.git /usr/src Cloning into '/usr/src'... started out appearing to work but ended badly: root@generic:/ # git clone -o freebsd https://git.FreeBSD.org/src.git /usr/src Cloning into '/usr/src'... remote: Enumerating objects: 4323455, done. remote: Counting objects: 100% (381285/381285), done. remote: Compressing objects: 100% (28204/28204), done. remote: Total 4323455 (delta 375529), reused 353081 (delta 353081), pack-reused 3942170 Receiving objects: 100% (4323455/4323455), 1.54 GiB | 1.01 MiB/s, done. fatal: pack is corrupted (SHA1 mismatch) fatal: fetch-pack: invalid index-pack output I don't think this is something I could have screwed up, but my talents occasionally surpass expectation 8-) I took no special actions during the prompts and warnings following pkg install git-lite but was rather surprised at the number of dependencies accompanying git-lite. This is a Pi2, v1.1, mechanical hard drive, command line only interface. The disk has been laid out traditionally, with swapspace between root and usr. Original contents of /usr were transplanted to the new partition using cp -a, might that be a problem? Thanks for reading, bob prohaska
