Re: can't create a branch on remote

OK thanks I'm going to try this out, let me ask a question because it
sounds my work flow is not good.
I don't want to push the work done in my local branch to head/master,
I want to push this work into
"long-live" branch of a central repository, which belongs to "admin",
and eventually this branch does not exist yet.
my-central-repo: master, origin = linux-2.6.git
                        branch1, branched at v2.6.21.7
                        branch2, branched at v2.6.21.7
-> I want (not admin) people to clone my-repo and work on branch1
and/or branch2.
-> I want some people to add a new branch3 at v2.6.21.7 into my-central-repo.
    (This will not happen very often, can be restricted to admin)

Maybe in this case it is common to define more "public" repositories:
 repo-branch1/ and repo-branch2/
I guess people could then clone repo-branchX and push the work done,
and up to owner of my-central-repo
to merge repo-branchX/master into my-central-repo/branchX?

Auguste.
