This particular git repository seems to not have any contents on its master
branch, which is the branch git checks out by default. It does however have another branch:
% git branch -a
* master
remotes/origin/HEAD -> origin/master
remotes/origin/android-msm-2.6.35
remotes/origin/master
So if you check out this branch:
% git checkout android-msm-2.6.35
Checking out files: 100% (33866/33866), done.
Branch android-msm-2.6.35 set up to track remote branch android-msm-2.6.35 from origin.
Switched to a new branch 'android-msm-2.6.35'
then there’s also content in the working tree.
