"bare repository" learning by examples

A bare repository is normally an appropriately named directory with a .git suffix that does not have a locally checked-out copy of any of the files under revision control. That is, all of the Git administrative and control files that would normally be present in the hidden .git sub-directory are directly present in the repository.git directory instead, and no other files are present and checked out. Usually publishers of public repositories make bare repositories available.

This is a bare repository generated by git clone --bare:

➜  repo_clone_bare.git git:(master) ll

-rw-r--r--   1 administrator  staff    23B Sep 12 23:08 HEAD
