I'm running geth --testnet on ropsten testnet and attached a swarm node to it. Now I should be able to use mango to host my git repositories on swarm. I installed mango-admin and git-remote-mango nodejs modules.

However, here the documentation somehow stops with specifics. It suggests to run mango-admin create to initialize a repository. But I somehow suspect it defaults to IPFS. And I can not find out how to tell mango to use Swarm instead.

Also, creating a default repository does not work either:

 $ mango-admin create
Initialising...
/usr/lib/node_modules/mango-admin/node_modules/web3/lib/web3/httpprovider.js:87
        throw errors.InvalidResponse(request.responseText);                
        ^

Error: Invalid JSON RPC response: undefined
    at Object.InvalidResponse (/usr/lib/node_modules/mango-admin/node_modules/web3/lib/web3/errors.js:35:16)

How to create a git repository on swarm with mango?
