You can make any (remotely accessible) folder a git repo. It may look damn simple, but for a programmer who git-ed ad-hoc, it's eye-opening.

For example, in your tilde home, you have a folder `repo`, you do a `git init`. And in your local machine, you do the same, and you point the remote to the accessible folder.

git remote add origin user@host:~/repo
