You're just trying to clone the orgmode repo? You shouldn't need to do 'git
init.' That's used when you want to create a local git repo from your own,
pre-existing files. You're just trying to pull from a remote repository.

,---
| $ git clone git://orgmode.org/org-mode.git
`---

Should work on it's own from any directory and will create a new directory
populated with the orgmode git tree.

Git should work, regardless of the distro. Can you try again? If you'e
like, try cd-ing to a directory where you want this to live and executing:

,---
| $ git clone git://orgmode.org/org-mode.git org.git
`---

See what happens. If you get errors, post the exact output to the list and
others should be able to help.


Thanks!
John
