Hi.
I've recently been setting up a `public-inbox` mirror on my workstation.
I've cloned the epochs for a few Linux kernel lists, and Spectrum, and
used `public-inbox-init` to add the lists to the configuration in
`$HOME`.
However, I'm finding the documentation rather lacking (happy to make
patches once I figure it out) in terms of examples in some instances.
For example, the `public-inbox-fetch` command, I've pointed the `-C`
argument to say, `linux-mediatek/git/0.git`, and get the following
output:
````
$ public-inbox-fetch -C projects/mailing-lists/linux-mediatek/git/0.git
# inbox URL: http://lore.kernel.org/linux-mediatek/
# /etc/profiles/per-user/shymega/bin/curl -Sf -R -o m-xfHa.tmp http://lore.kernel.org/linux-mediatek/manifest.js.gz

git config -f /home/shymega/projects/mailing-lists/linux-mediatek/git/1.git/config include.path ../../all.git/config failed: $?=65280
````
Am I on the right path here? I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.
Sorry for the 'newbie' question. Although, we all were at one point or
another.
Other than this, I'm relatively happy with `public-inbox` mirroring. I'm
making a developer-oriented multi-'adapter' NNTP server at the moment,
which I'm hoping to use myself.
Thank you.
Best wishes,

That should be pointed to the inbox directory, not the git epoch,
(although epoch seems to work, too...):
$ public-inbox-fetch -C projects/mailing-lists/linux-mediatek/
You shouldn't need to go into deeper directory levels in normal day-to-day use.

Everything said, I'm not sure why it's trying 1.git here when
linux-mediatek only has the 0.git epoch...
Viewing the manifest via:
curl https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mediatek/manifest.js.gz | zcat | less
confirms there's only one epoch..

I wonder if something got mangled by lore doing the redirects from http to
https. Perhaps changing the url in git/0.git/config to use https will help
*shrug*
You can also try my slower lore mirror https://yhbt.net/lore/linux-mediatek/
I use for dogfooding new changes.
Also, are you using public-inbox.git or the v1.9.0 release?
I really need to get the 2.0 features done and released but real life
has been sucking more and more every year :x

No worries, it's good for pointing out flaws in documentation :>

Cool :>

Ah, okay.

Changing it to HTTPS did the trick!

I'm on v1.9.0 on NixOS. Is that alright to use?

Absolutely.

Good to know. I'm not sure if the bug is on the lore redirect
configuration or something else, though.

Yes, 1.9.0 is fine. There's been major changes in that area
(mainly public-inbox-clone) since the last release, though.

This is a public inbox, see mirroring instructions
for how to clone and mirror all data and code used for this inbox;
as well as URLs for read-only IMAP folder(s) and NNTP newsgroup(s).
