How to clone git repository from one machine to another in linux?

I 开发者_StackOverflowwant to clone git repository from another computer but it gives me a message of:

did you run git update-server-info on the server?

what should I do? Anyone can help me?

Thanks

As Jefromi suggested, use

git clone redmine@myserver:/home/redmine/git_repositories/testproj.git

(update your username and "myserver" to real ones)

It maybe that you are cloning over HTTP which is a dumb protocol and requires git update-server-info to be run. Try running git update-server-info on the server as the message suggests and re-clone.
