Hi,

I did the rookie mistkae on the central server to create the main reposity in non-bare mode. So i need to checkout the HEAD revision each time I push. Is there a cleaner way to convert a non-bare git repo into a bare repo than cloning it? My repo have a lot of remote branch registered, and cloning them to a new bare repo mean I'll have to add all those remote branches again (except if there is another trick here I don't know about).

Regards

Nicolas
