Good question, and the answer is yes, it is the only spot that produces
no useful output. The other errors are:

via ssh, git-daemon, or file:// (all using receive-pack) you get:
$ git-clone localhost:foo bar
Initialized empty Git repository in /home/peff/bar/.git/
fatal: no matching remote head
fetch-pack from 'localhost:foo' failed.

via http, you get:
$ git-clone http://localhost/git/foo bar
Initialized empty Git repository in /home/peff/bar/.git/
Cannot get remote repository information.
Perhaps git-update-server-info needs to be run there?

I didn't try rsync, though I expect it should be the same as http.
