Hi, When I ran "git clone http://opensource.freescale.com/pub/scm/u-boot-83xx.git", I get the following error:

git: fatal error: `chdir' failed: permission denied.

I checked the git code, but, couldn't find this. I hope git doesn't need me to be superuser.

Thanks and Regards, Ananth.

Hi, I did install git. But, I'm facing the following problems:

1. "git clone" gives the following error:

git: fatal error: `chdir' failed: permission denied. I'm running git as a normal user - not as root. (I cannot get "root" permission on the server.)

2. I'm inside a firewall. Do I need to make some settings for git to work with external websites?

Are you using the git:// or http:// protocols? If you're using git://, try replacing that with http://, which is meant for firewalls. We have the same problem here in Freescale, so we always need to use http://.
