warning: remote HEAD refers to nonexistent ref, unable to checkout

Question

This seems like a popular error for different causes.

I\'ve got a simple bare git repo called \"kiflea.git\", I clone it like this:

git clone git://k         


        

Answer 1

In my case the repo was empty.

git checkout --orphan master

git add some_file
git commit -m 'init'
git push origin master
