Why can't I push to this bare repository?

Question

Can you explain what is wrong with this workflow?

$ git init --bare bare
Initialized empty Git repository in /work/fun/git_experiments/bare/
$ git clone bare         


        

Answer 1

I use SourceTree git client, and I see that their initial commit/push command is:

git -c diff.mnemonicprefix=false -c core.quotepath=false push -v --tags --set-upstream origin master:master
