How to set up git mirror

Hi,

Both machines run Debian.  The web host with the http mirror runs Debian 
Etch while the machine which would host the daemon runs Lenny.  
Unfortunately, I can't upgrade the git version on the web host which is 
1.5.6.5.  Would it be better to abandon the web host and only use the 
daemon?  That's not my ideal solution because that machine has hardware 
problems, but I do have full control and I can install upgrades as 
needed.  The web host (Dreamhost) does offer ssh and regular shell 
access, so there should be no reason why git-pull, clone, fetch, etc 
shouldn't work.  I'm fairly sure they have rsync also if that would 
work.  Maybe it would be better to use rsync for the Speakup web site 
and only use the git daemon for the git mirror, assuming 
linux-speakup.org supports rsync.  Also, Dreamhost has much more 
bandwidth and generally faster connections than the other machine.  The 
daemon machine (called fileserver) is on a business cable connection so 
it's faster than residential but not as fast as Dreamhost.  What are 
your suggestions?  I have full control over my dns records, so I can 
switch domains around between machines as needed.  You can write 
off-list if you prefer.
