Simple Remote Git

cd my-project
git clone --bare . ../my-project.git
scp -r ../my-project.git user@server:/path/to/git-repositories/
git remote add origin user@server:/path/to/git-repositories/my-project.git

# then you can do:
git push
git pull 
etc etc

# For remote branch management
gem install grb

There's an easier way. This on the server:

mkdir my-project.git && cd !$
git --bare init

Now locally:

git remote add origin user@server:/path/to/git-repositories/my-project.git

No need for grb. To delete a remote branch git push origin :branch-to-delete. You don't really need anything else.
