title: How to create new git repository with SourceTree?
body: <p>Here is what I did so far (in SourceTree):<br></p>
  <ol>
  <li>Choose &quot;Create New Repository&quot;</li>
  <li>choose a destination path (&quot;hallo&quot;)</li>
  <li>create a file in the &quot;hallo&quot; directory</li>
  <li>commit that file (which creates a local master branch)</li>
  <li>create a new remote (ssh://xxx@192.168.162.20:22/srv/git/hallo)</li>
  <li>push to remote branch</li>
  </ol>
  <p>Now I get an error:</p>
  <blockquote>
  <p>git -c diff.mnemonicprefix=false -c core.quotepath=false push -v --tags --set-upstream origin master:master</p>
  <p>Pushing to ssh://xxx@192.168.162.20:22/srv/git/hallo</p>
  <p>fatal: '/srv/git/hallo' does not appear to be a git repository<br>
  fatal: Could not read from remote repository.</p>
  </blockquote>
  <p>I am working with a a dozen of other repositiories without any difficulties on that server. So it can't be an access or ssh problem. I also double checked the ip address of the server.</p>
  <p>If I start the terminal and write &quot;git remote -v&quot; I get:</p>
  <blockquote>
  <p>origin  ssh://xxx@192.168.162.20:22/srv/git/hallo (fetch)<br>
  origin  ssh://xxx@192.168.162.20:22/srv/git/hallo (push)</p>
  </blockquote>
  <p>If I try to push (&quot;git push origin master&quot;) I get:</p>
  <blockquote>
  <p>fatal: '/srv/git/hallo' does not appear to be a git repository<br>
  fatal: Could not read from remote repository.</p>
  </blockquote>
  <p>Please make sure you have the correct access rights
  and the repository exists.</p>
  <p>I have no clue what I'm missing.
  Can you help?</p>
