 You shouldn't push to a non-bare repository.

Is there any reason it wouldn't be appropriate to make git refuse to
push to non-bare repositories?


It has several very valid uses. Newcomers who don't know what happens are
often better off not doing it, which is why it's not recommended. Making
git refuse would prevent the valid uses altogether though.
