    copied!<p>I bought a personal dev box which I will use for deploying stuff I create on my laptop. I thought it would be a good idea to use Git for code management. The idea was that I will keep committing on my laptop and when needed, will push the changes to the remote dev box. </p> <ol> <li>I initialized a Git repo on the box and </li> <li>cloned it on my laptop. </li> <li><p>But After doing <code>git push</code> I get this error:</p> <p>remote: error: refusing to update checked out branch: refs/heads/master remote: error: By default, updating the current branch in a non-bare repository remote: error: is denied, because it will make the index and work tree inconsistent remote: error: with what you pushed, and will require 'git reset --hard' to match</p></li> </ol> <p>I know that the remote repo was not bare.</p> <p>I want to ask if the only way to go with my kind of setup is:</p> <ol> <li>Initialize a bare repo on Server</li> <li>Clone it on my laptop</li> <li>add new files to the local laptop repo and commit the files</li> <li>push to the remote dev box repo</li> </ol> <p>Even this setup gives me errors:</p> <pre><code>No refs in common and none specified; doing nothing. Perhaps you should specify a branch such as 'master'. fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly </code></pre> <hr> <p><em>EDIT</em></p> <p>I tried </p> <pre><code>git push origin master </code></pre> <p>Got this error:</p> <pre><code>error: unable to create directory for .git/refs/remotes/origin/master error: Cannot lock the ref 'refs/remotes/origin/master'. </code></pre> <hr> <p><em>Oh dumb me... I think it is <code>sudo</code> as in</em></p> <p><code>sudo make me intelligent</code></p>
