Question

initial git setup on the droplet

  • Posted April 27, 2014

Hello,

I created a new droplet (ubuntu ghost), and tried the following strategy to copy my local ghost blog (node.js app):

git remote -v production root@my.ip.address:droplet-name (fetch) production root@my.ip.address:droplet-name (push)

git push -u production master fatal: Could not read from remote repository

I am wondering if something like this is supported right after creating of the droplet, or would I need to setup git on my droplet?

Pushing git repositories isn’t setup out of the box on the Ghost droplet, but it’s pretty simple to accomplish.
