I have a mob for /.git, but I do not have the setup for /git/.git. Maybe I deleted it because I didn't understand what is means.

So, what is the right remote for pushing /git/.git? Where is the mob branch for git://repo.or.cz/git/mingw/4msysgit.git/ ?

Whoever has setup the mob configurations, maybe it would be a good idea to forbid non-fast-forward but instead allow the creation of new mob* branches. If I can't push to mob, I could push to mob-topic instead. Cleanup would be in the responsibility of the repository owner.
