This is how to create git-repo over ssh
suppose you have a project in ~/yourprojectdir
and the remote ssh server login is user@xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
both client and server have git installed

Method 1

cd ~/yourprojectdir

git init

git add . # include everything below ./ in the first commit;
          # if you want to remove use git rm -r --cache xxx

git commit

cd ..

git clone --bare ~/yourprojectdir yourproject.git

touch yourproject.git/git-daemon-export-ok


then copy the git directory to your ssh sever

scp -r yourproject.git user@xxx.xxx.xxx.xx:/Volumes/HD/git/


setup git repo in ssh server

ssh user@xxx.xxx.xxx.xx "cd /Volumes/HD/git/yourproject.git; git --bare update-server-info; mv hooks/post-update.sample hooks/post-update"


check the location of remote git binary and the remote ssh login shell

ssh user@xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx "which git-upload-pack"
ssh user@xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx "echo \$PATH"

mine is /usr/local/bin/git-upload-pack


if the remote login shell does not include path of git, create ~/.bashrc in your remote ssh login shell

ssh user@xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx "echo 'export PATH=\${PATH}:/usr/local/bin' > ~/.bashrc"


push to remote git repo

cd ~/yourprojectdir

git remote add origin ssh://user@xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/Volumes/HD/git/yourproject.git

git push origin master



Method 2

Create git repo in remote server

ssh user@xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx "mkdir -p /Volumes/HD/git/yourproject.git; cd /Volumes/HD/git/yourproject.git; git --bare init; touch git-daemon-export-ok"


Check the location of remote git binary and the remote ssh login shell as per Method 1

Commit project in your local and push to git repo

cd ~/yourprojectdir

git init

git add . # include everything below ./ in the first commit;
          # if you want to remove use git rm -r --cache xxx

git commit

git remote add origin ssh://user@xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/Volumes/HD/git/yourproject.git

git push origin master



Test git clone

cd ~
git clone ssh://user@xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/Volumes/HD/git/yourproject.git working
cd working
git log
git checkout


How to Branch

git branch -r # show branch in repo
git checkout -b todo origin/to-do-branch # checkout a new branch
git checkout master # checkout the master branch

git branch next # create new branch
git add .
git commit -m 'commit nextbranch'
git push origin next



How to fetch Branch from github repo

git clone git://github.com/username/repo-name.git
cd repo-name
git branch -r # show branch in repo
git checkout origin/to-do-branch # quick peek at an upstream branch
git checkout -b todo origin/to-do-branch # checkout a new tracking branch



To fetch a remote from github pull request # into your local repo

git fetch origin pull/<ID #>/head:NEWBRANCHNAME
git checkout NEWBRANCHNAME
