I created master branch in git:

mkdir git_master;
cd git_master
git init
git add .
git commit

create a clone
git clone . ../git_clone1
create newfile
git add newfile
git commit .

then try to propagate changes to master
git push

it gave me some warning, and subsequent git push says everything is up to
date.
but I do not see the new file under git_master

If you asked that question in the official IRC channel, the answer would 
be 'faq non-bare', which would cause the bot to send you a link to this 
entry in the Git FAQ:
http://git.or.cz/gitwiki/GitFaq#Whywon.27tIseechangesintheremoterepoafter.22gitpush.22.3F

(Please do not top post).

If you asked that question on the IRC, the answer would be 'faq
mothership-satellite', which would cause the bot to send you a link to
this entry in the Git FAQ:

    push is reverse of fetch. See
    http://git.or.cz/gitwiki/GitFaq#mothership-satellite

This link is recommended by the entry Tomas gave you, so I am having this
sad feeling that you wouldn't read it either...  Sigh.
