Question

I’m trying to get git up running on a Windows server.

I have installed winssh and git on the server and now I wanted to test if everything is nice and cool. But it ain’t.

I have the following url in the config file:

username@domain:GitRepo/QRCode.git

But I get the following error when I try to push:

does not appear to be a repository

I’ve created the repo like this:

mkdir QRCode.git
cd QRCode.git
git --bare init

And I can see all the git stuff is there at: “C:\GitRepo\QRCode.git”

I have also tried to change the URL to:

username@domain:c/GitRepo/QRCode.git

without any luck.

Answer 1

Have you tried using ssh://username@domain:...? I’m pretty sure you need to specify the initial scheme ssh:// for the URI, otherwise git doesn’t know how to access it.
