Correct way of making existing remote repository "bare"

Hi,

Yesterday I initialized a new repository on our server. I did some coding locally, added the remote server (git remote add ....) and then pushed my changes to the remote server.

But I noticed that my remote server is not a "bare" repository and git complains when I push to it again. What is the correct way to make an existing remote repository bare?

This is what I did and it worked, but not sure if this is the correct way of doing it.

Steps I done:

* ssh to remote server
* git clone --bare -l <path_to_repos> <new_dir>
* renamed old repository directory
* renamed new repository dir to what old repository used to be.

Like I said, this did the tick, but is this the correct way of doing it?


Regards,
