Hi list,
I have a repository in my laptop, and need to push the repo to a
remote server using ssh protocol.
I know how to init a original repo. But the repo in the server is not
original, the laptop repo is.
Just 'git init' in server, then 'git push server' after 'git remote
add server ...' in laptop gives error.
Thanks,
Changsheng Jiang

It's hard to say without seeing the error message, but I'm assuming it
was along the lines of "No refs in common".
By default, "git push server" will push matching branches (i.e., ones
that both the client and the server have in common). To push a new
branch, you say "git push server $BRANCH", or even just "git push --all
server".

Thanks, 'git push --all server' works.
