I want
to have configurate a GIT repo for a website.
Multiple users will have a clone of the repo on their local machine and on the end of each day they push their work
to the server. I can setup a bare repo, but I want a working dir/non-bare repository.
The idea is that the working dir of the repository will the root folder for the website. At the end of each day all changes will be visible directly. But I can't find a way
to do this.
Initializing the server repo with git init gives the following error when a client is trying
to push some files:
git push origin master
[email protected]'s password:

Writing objects: 100% (3/3), 227 bytes, done.

error: failed

So I'm wondering if this the right way
to setup a GIT repo for a website?
If so, how do I have
to do this? If not, what is a better way
to setup a GIT repo for the development of a website?
EDIT
you can't push
to a non-bare repository
Oke, clear. But whats the way
to solve my problem? Create a bare repository on the server and have a clone of this repo on the same server in the htdocs folder? This looks a bit clumsy
to me.
To see the result of a commit I've
to clone the repository each time.
