Your repository is accessed over http.  You need to run "git
update-server-info" to build the files for clients to see the actual
updates.

Usually such a repo is bare, and gets updates only by push. In that
case, enabling the update hook to run update-server-info is sufficient.
But in your case, you are actually working on the remote repo via commit
and other means, so there is no convenient way to always
update-server-info after a change.

Is there a particular reason you cloned over http instead of over ssh?
