I figured ;) Let me see if I can explain it better: remote master: the project git server, located remotely over the internet local master: my laptop repository, made by cloning the project master repo slave(s): my local machines, which clone the local master, instead of the remote master (to save bandwidth) So on the local master (my laptop) I did: $ git-clone http://remote.master.address/foo/bar.git Because I had to do some local changes to the code (what I've called a "local commit"), I did this on the local master: $ git-commit -a Now I want a copy of the repository on another machine, "slave". So I do this: $ git-clone ssh://local.master.address/path/to/repo Which gives the annoying error.. If I skipped the "local commit" stuff, then the cloning would work perfectly. I hope this is clear now.. Thanks!
