git clone fails in patch.sh

[jadonk]

https://github.com/beagleboard/kernel/blob/master/patch.sh#L42 generates an error on my version of git. I need to confirm that this is resolved in newer versions of git.

Jason, what error is git throwing out?

Does this error only occur inside TI? If so it's probably a proxy issue, and we'd just have to set it up for corkscrew/etc/something... Over here, using Debian Wheezy with git version 1.7.10...

Regards,

What is your version? I don't get any immediate errors.

joel@joelbox:/tmp$ git --version
git version 1.7.9.5

I confirmed it works for me using a newer version of git.
