Hi Luís,

the problem is that a shallow fetch implies that a temporary file has
to be written into the repository *by git-daemon*. Obviously, and for
good reason, we didn't give git-daemon those permissions and I don't
think we should. I expect the shallow fetch to work over ssh (can you
confirm?).

There is a recentish patch addressing this behavior (bug?) here:

http://git.661346.n2.nabble.com/PATCH-upload-pack-allow-shallow-fetching-from-a-read-only-repository-td7604326.html

How much of an issue is this for you?

Regards,
	Mario
