Problema: No se puede clonar un determinado repositorio, la causa es el uso de versiones muy dispares de Git (cliente - servidor).

git clone --mirror http://dominio.com/scm/lnxadm/backup-tools.git
Initialized empty Git repository in /root/backup-tools.git/
error: The requested URL returned error: 400 Bad Request while accessing http://dominio.com/scm/lnxadm/backup-tools.git/info/refs

Solución: Instalar un cliente Git más actual en el cliente.

En le caso de Centos 6.4 por defecto se instala client git 1.7.1

Description : GIT comes in two layers. The bottom layer is merely an extremely fast
            : and flexible filesystem-based database designed to store directory trees
            : with regard to their history. The top layer is a SCM-like tool which
            : enables human beings to work with the database in a manner to a degree
            : similar to other SCM tools (like CVS, BitKeeper or Monotone).
