It sounds like you are pushing to the currently-checked-out branch of
a non-bare repo.

If this is true, you should do one of the following:

- have a central "bare" repo (created with git init --bare) and
push/pull from that rather than directly

- pull, rather than push, when transferring data between repos.

You can pull from a Windows box by running git-daemon on that box from
the command line.  (It's easier than it sounds.)

Have fun,
