Thanks very much. And (should have asked this first ....) is it possible to init a repo remotely, i.e. to use the git on my machine to do init-repo on a directory accessed via ssh or ftp? And if yes ... to do other git commands similarly remotely?

The latter would be a slow and painful way of working, I imagine, but might be useful.
