Well, then, you should get rid of cogito/Documentation/introduction.html, if you don't plan on supporting the interfaces described there.
I'm really just starting out. I see that tutorial, and I want to do it.

Ugh, ugh ugh ugh.

I can't, because I have to do the first push. This is what I was told last time!
I'm doing what I'm told, and now more things are breaking. This is frustrating.
I'm not saying that you guys aren't doing a hell of a job. I'm just coming at this from a user's perspective, and trying to describe it to others. I'm not comfortable yet, because every time I try to do what the manuals say, it breaks. Perhaps y'all are secretly working around every broken thing, but I don't know enough to do that.

So, give me the exact steps, using "cg" to:
create a "remote" repo on my disk
create a "local" repo on my disk
set up the linkage between remote and local
push from local to remote
pull from remote to localAnd if it ever needs a command like "cat" or "echo", something is wrong. I'll accept a "git-" command for one or two of the steps, but that feels like dropping into assembler instead of C.
