+Have tried 3 options

+1. mkdir $REP cd $REP run command (says $REP already exists so won't run)

+3. mkdir $TMP cd $TMP run command (creates a repository in $SRC/.git creates a repository in $TMP, does nothing to $REP, ends with "remote origin already exists".

+Git version is 1.5.2.5
+
+n.b. svn version of command worked fine :)
