Firstly, I would have a serious look at 'gitosis' for the server end
(there are other similar projects I believe).

Secondly, the push command is wrong. You don't need to supply the
remote URL again... that's what 'origin' is telling the push command,
which remote to use. This would have been established by the original
clone.

Also, again, be careful with 'empty' repositories. (again AFAIK) an
empty repository is just that, it doesn't even have a master branch so
you really need to check out a branch and commit something before
pushing makes much sense. I'm sure this is not 100% correct but you'll
be safe that way!
