You're misunderstanding me: the multi-repo is at git.sv.gnu.org is the
remote one. The example I gave was about locally creating a single
project repo from a remote multiproject repo. 

On a tangent: why is there no reverse-clone?  I have no shell access
to the machine, so when I created the remote repo, I had to push, and
ended up putting 1.2 Gb data on the server.

<looks at manpage>

is this send-pack? From UI perspective it would be nice if this could
also be done with clone,

  git clone . ssh+git://....

yes, this works. Two remarks:


* it needs

  website/master:master

otherwise you still don't have a branch.

* why are objects downloaded twice?  If I do

  git --bare fetch git://git.sv.gnu.org/lilypond.git web/master

it downloads stuff, but I don't get a branch. If I then do 

  git --bare fetch git://git.sv.gnu.org/lilypond.git web/master:master

it downloads the same stuff again.
