Git - making a working directory a master -


i have git working directory use create new master, keeping existing commit history (etc.) intact. reason original remote master has become corrupt, , working directory has had updates made since.

i've tried git clone of working directory, unable push cloned directory. similar problem if straight copy , paste of working directory git server.

how convert local working directory new master on remote server?

i'm newbie when comes git, simple explanation without jargon helpful.

i guess getting error cannot push remote repo because branch whatever checked out (like here: git push receiving "error: refusing update checked out branch").

to create bare repo (this repo full history without checked out working copy),

git clone --bare yourrepo barerepo.git 

then, take barerepo.git directory , move machine should host it.

one done, add repo remote yourrepo

git remote add origin /path/to/barerepo.git 

then, should able to

git fetch origin git push origin 

however, question sounds want restore crashed remote repository local one. had same issue 1 week ago: how restore remote crashed git repo?
