Need help on WebDAV + GIT server setup

Server NGINX
1

Hi all,

I wish to install nginx as a WebDAV server to serve my GIT repos. But I
failed.

I’ve installed Nginx 1.2.5 to my server with both http_dav_module and
nginx-dav-ext-module https://github.com/arut/nginx-dav-ext-module.
Then I configure the server like this:

server {
    listen       80;
    server_name  foobar.com;
    charset utf-8;

    dav_methods PUT DELETE MKCOL COPY MOVE;
    dav_ext_methods PROPFIND OPTIONS;


    # turn on auth_basic
    auth_basic           "Private area";
    auth_basic_user_file "/var/gitrepos/.htpasswd";
    create_full_put_path   on;
    dav_access             group:rw  all:r;

    location / {
        root   /var/gitrepos;
        index  index.html index.htm;
        autoindex on;
    }

    location ~ /\.ht {
        deny  all;
    }
}

The server start successfully.
And I’ve created some repo on the server side.

Then when I tried to push something to the server, git reports an error:
“error: no DAV locking support on http://[email protected]/test-repo/”

And when I try to clone a repo that I created and pushed earlier on
server,
I get this error:
“warning: You appear to have cloned an empty repository”

I’m confused. Please give me some suggestion. Thanks!
