Thanks, that worked.  but push still gives me an error:

$ git pull
You asked me to pull without telling me which branch you
want to merge with, and 'branch.master.merge' in
your configuration file does not tell me either.  Please
name which branch you want to merge on the command line and
try again (e.g. 'git pull <repository> <refspec>').
See git-pull(1) for details on the refspec.

If you often merge with the same branch, you may want to
configure the following variables in your configuration
file:

    branch.master.remote = <nickname>
    branch.master.merge = <remote-ref>
    remote.<nickname>.url = <url>
    remote.<nickname>.fetch = <refspec>

See git-config(1) for details

what do you mean by master-less?  I would love to just be able to
create a normal git repo with "git-init" and clone it over http the
same way that i do over ssh and the filesystem.  but when I do that
over http i get this error:

$ git-clone http://aeyakovenko@xxxxxxxxxxxx/git/repo/ repo
Initialized empty Git repository in /home/aeyakovenko/projects/repo/.git/
Cannot get remote repository information.
Perhaps git-update-server-info needs to be run there?

and running `git-update-server-info` does nothing.
