fatal: Not a Git Repository

So I have SSH working now no problemo and I have setup a new git repo in my /home/Tom/Git/myapp.git I provided access to another drive for hosting the repo so the directory "Git" actually exists on D:\ using ln -s /cygdrive/d/Git/myapp.git Now when I attempt to clone my git repo using ssh://name@ipaddress:port/Git/myapp.git I get a fatal: '/Git/myapp.git' does not appear to be a git repository Any ideas ? Edit: I even created a directory just inside /Tom/myapp.git and tried to use git clone ssh://name@ipaddress:port/myapp.git And i still get the error? Also try git clone -v ssh://name@ipaddress:port/~/myapp.git Error is fatal: '~/myapp.git' does not appear to be a git repository Initialized empty Git repository in D:/Local/myapp/.git/ fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly
