Are you sure it does nothing?  I see git v1.0.4 on my debian box at work.  
Indeed, it is a way less verbose than a git from my home linux box 
(v1.3.3), but it still works.  I guess you remember that GIT repository is 
near to ~180 MB [*] by its size, so cloning cannot happend immediately.

I just ran git-clone script directly with shell tracing enabled:

 $ sh -x git-clone git://source.winehq.org/git/wine.git wine

It paused at these lines, v1.0.4:

 defaulting to local storage area
 ++ pwd
 + D=/usr/src/wine-git/temp/wine
 + test -d /usr/src/wine-git/temp/wine
 + cd /usr/src/wine-git/temp/wine
 + git-clone-pack git://source.winehq.org/git/wine.git

v1.3.3:

 + D=/usr/src/wine-git/temp/wine
 + trap 'err=$?; cd ..; rm -r "$D"; exit $err' exit
 + case "$bare" in
 + GIT_DIR=/usr/src/wine-git/temp/wine/.git
 + export GIT_DIR
 + git-init-db
 + case "$bare" in
 + GIT_DIR=/usr/src/wine-git/temp/wine/.git
 + test -n ''
 + rm -f /usr/src/wine-git/temp/wine/.git/CLONE_HEAD
 + case "$local,$use_local" in
 + case "$repo" in
 + cd /usr/src/wine-git/temp/wine
 + case "$upload_pack" in
 + git-fetch-pack --all -k git://source.winehq.org/git/wine.git
    0.445MB  (46 kB/s)  
 
So, I guess you are observing normal behaviour.  


[*] ~100 MB is for repository internals (.git) and ~80 MB is occupied by 
    the extracted source (dlls, fonts, include, ...)
