Unable to clone the scenes repository at git://git.pbrt.org/pbrt-v3-scenes #305

Closed calvin-godfrey closed 3 years ago

I went to https://pbrt.org/scenes-v3.html and tried both copying the command git clone git://git.pbrt.org/pbrt-v3-scenes and typing it out myself. Both resulted in the following error:

$ git clone git://git.pbrt.org/pbrt-v3-scenes
Cloning into 'pbrt-v3-scenes'...
fatal: read error: Invalid argument

I was able to download from the secondary host (http://storage.googleapis.com/pbrt/pbrt-scenes.git.tar.gz), but is there anything else I have to do to clone the scenes repo? I can clone other git repositories with no issues on the same client, using Git Bash on Windows 10.

As a follow up question, I unzipped and untarred the download from the secondary host and found most of the data in a pack-d4ebedc0b1b8f82452ba731732ed21d294e5ca7f.pack which 7zip says "Can not open file as archive". How can I unpack the .pack file?

Sorry about that! This should be fixed now--thanks for reporting it.

The .tar.gz file contains the git repository. Run git checkout . to check out the contents.
