Hi,
I have created a git annex repo, added data. I then went to check it out in another location in the following way (my goal is to checkout origin, add a test file, push it back to origin). git clone ../test_repo/
282 17:19 cd test_repo/
283 17:19 ls
284 17:19 git status
285 17:22 git annex init DEV
286 17:22 touch test.txt
287 17:22 vi test.txt
288 17:22 git annex merge
289 17:22 git annex add test.txt
290 17:22 git commit -am "test"
291 17:23 git push origin master git-annex
However I am getting the following error

What am I missing?
git does not allow pushing into a non-bare repsitory. This is why bare repositories exist.
You have basically 3 choices:
git pullfrom the other repo into it. Pulling in this direction will work.git annex sync, which avoids this problem. You need to run it in both repos in order to get them to sync with one-another.Ok so when I create my origin and after I add files to it, when I run git annex sync I get
Invalid command: 'git-annex-shell 'configlist' '/~/gitfile.git'' You appear to be using ssh to clone a git:// URL. Make sure your core.gitProxy config option and the GIT_PROXY_COMMAND environment variable are NOT set. warning: no common commits
and then it hangs. Is git-annex not accepting git via ssh?
git-annex certianly works with git over ssh. You seem to not have git-annex installed on your git server, which will limit what you can do with it.
I cannot find the message "You appear to be using ssh to clone a git:// URL." in either git or git-annex's code base. Perhaps the message is coming from something like gitosis or gitolite on your git server?
It's hard to give advice when you're not said anything about how you've set things up.
