** Setup remote repo
taylorwired:~ taylor$ ssh panda
Last login: Sat Jan 10 19:46:44 2009 from taylorwired.home
[taylor@panda ~]$ mkdir testme.git
[taylor@panda ~]$ cd testme.git/
[taylor@panda testme.git]$ git --bare init
Initialized empty Git repository in /home/taylor/testme.git/
[taylor@panda testme.git]$ logout
Connection to panda closed.

** Create local source tree

taylorwired:~ taylor$ mkdir testme
taylorwired:~ taylor$ cd testme/
taylorwired:testme taylor$ touch README
taylorwired:testme taylor$ touch testme.rb
taylorwired:testme taylor$ ls
README    testme.rb

** Pull it into GIT
taylorwired:testme taylor$ git init
Initialized empty Git repository in /Users/taylor/testme/.git/
taylorwired:testme taylor$ git add .
taylorwired:testme taylor$ git commit -m "initial import"
Created initial commit eea469e: initial import
 2 files changed, 4 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-)
 create mode 100644 README
 create mode 100755 testme.rb

** Setup for pushing to remote repo
taylorwired:testme taylor$ git remote add origin ssh://panda/home/taylor/testme.git
taylorwired:testme taylor$ git push origin master

Compressing objects: 100% (2/2), done.

 * [new branch]      master -> master
taylorwired:testme taylor$ git remote
origin
taylorwired:testme taylor$ git branch -a

  origin/master


** Test cloning remote repo
taylorwired:testme taylor$ cd /tmp
taylorwired:tmp taylor$ git clone ssh://panda/home/taylor/testme.git

taylorwired:testme taylor$ ls

** Add a new file via clone and make sure it shows up in first source tree
taylorwired:testme taylor$ touch test2
taylorwired:testme taylor$ git add test2
taylorwired:testme taylor$ git commit -m "file from clone 2"
Created commit b1d49dd: file from clone 2

** Add to initial source tree and check clone
taylorwired:testme taylor$ echo test1 > test1
taylorwired:testme taylor$ git add test1
taylorwired:testme taylor$ git commit -m "test1" test1

######################

If you want to avoid having to type origin master every time you can do this if you
already setup like above you can use git branch --track origin/master.  
See below for demo

taylorwired:testme taylor$ cd /tmp/testme/
taylorwired:testme taylor$ git branch -a
* master
  origin/HEAD
  origin/master
taylorwired:testme taylor$ git branch --track origin/master
Branch origin/master set up to track local branch refs/heads/master.
taylorwired:testme taylor$ git pull
From ssh://panda/home/taylor/testme
   b1d49dd..1524e82  master     -> origin/master
Already up-to-date.
taylorwired:testme taylor$ git branch
* master
taylorwired:testme taylor$ git branch
* master
  origin/master
taylorwired:testme taylor$ git branch -a
* master
  origin/master
  origin/HEAD
  origin/master
taylorwired:testme taylor$ cd ~/testme
taylorwired:testme taylor$ touch test3
taylorwired:testme taylor$ git add test3
taylorwired:testme taylor$ git commit -m "test3"
Created commit 7eb6fca: test3
 0 files changed, 0 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-)
