= phenomenon =
Trying to load the git web for the Aeolus project is a complete failure:
http://git.fedorahosted.org/git/aeolus
When it finally loads, it's for a completely different project unrelated to us (Cobbler).
Effectively, people who don't have a local clone of our git cannot view the structure to determine what to clone.
= reason =
Misconfiguration on the fedorahosted servers.
= recommendation =
Fix the configuration problem?
This severely affects potential new developers.

This is not a duplicate of 2284, as this has nothing to do with caching.
As per skvidal, the problem is due to the way the index page is generated for projects not using Trac, and which have sub projects.
As it is, we have a workaround, of pointing people to git.fedorahosted.org, which doesn't exhibit the problem.
Which URL are you complaining about? If it's http://git.fedorahosted.org/git/aeolus then it is a dupe. Note that the present thinking in that bug is that the issue is rewrite rules rather than caching....
If it's some other page, then please include the URL that's showing bad results and the URL that's showing good results and what the bad results are vs what the good results are.
toshio: When you go to this URL:
https://fedorahosted.org/web/
It gives a listing for Aeolus of:
Which doesn't work, because the URL itself is incorrect.
Discuss with skvidal if you want further information. We have a workaround for now, which is apparently the best that can be done.
Thanks. That is related but the solution might be separate. CC'ing ricky to see what we might want to do with that URL.
This ticket can probably be closed.
We migrated our codebase from Fedorahosted to GitHub.
Well, I think we still need to fix the underlying issue of projects with no trac instance...
Thanks for the info tho.
ok, this is now finally fixed up due to switching to cgit from gitweb-caching.
