Funny, this very blog post is talking about why I think remote
creation should be under git push, not "git init --remote".

IMHO, maybe we also should change the error message that receive-pack
produces when the path its given isn't a Git repository.  Its really
not very human friendly to say "unable to chdir or not a git archive".
Hell, we don't even call them archives, we call them repositories.
