github like workflow on private server over ssh

I have an server (available via ssh) on the internet that my friend and I use for working on projects together. We have started using git for source control. Our setup currently is as follows:

• Friend created repository on server with git --bare init named project.friend.git
• I cloned project.friend.git on server to project.jesse.git
• I then cloned project.jesse.git on server to my local machine using git clone jesse@server:/git_repos/project.jesse.git
• I work on my local machine and commit to the local machine. When I want to push my changes to the project.jesse.git on server I use git push origin master. My friend is working on project.friend.git. When I want to get his changes I do pull jesse@server:/git_repos/project.friend.git.

Everything seems to be working fine, however, I am now getting the following error when I do git push origin master:

localpc:project.jesse jesse$ git push origin master

Is this warning anything I need to be worried about? Like I said, everything seems to be working. My friend is able to pull my changes in from my branch. I have the clone on the server so he can access it since he does not have access to my local machine. Is there something that could be done better?

Thanks!

You should set up a bare repository on the server. A bare repository contains only the version history information that is usually in the .git directory in your repository root. You can clone from it or push to it like with any other repository.

Bare repositories are created with

 git init --bare

If you already have some version history make a bare clone

git clone --bare git://some/where

As for your warning see this question.
