Hi Rich,

>$ git init barerepo
>Initialized empty Git repository in /tmp/am_i_crazy/barerepo/.git/

This looks like your problem: without passing the --bare flag, it's not a bare repo. It even says it's initialized under barerepo/.git instead of barerepo.

Compare with the result of passing --bare:

```
testuser /tmp $ git init --bare barerepo
Initialized empty Git repository in /tmp/barerepo/

testuser /tmp $ git clone --dissociate --no-hardlinks --no-local barerepo clonerepo
Cloning into 'clonerepo'...
warning: You appear to have cloned an empty repository.

testuser /tmp $ cd clonerepo/

testuser /tmp/clonerepo $ printf "This is a test file created on %s\n" "$(date +%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S)" | tee test.txt
This is a test file created on 2021-01-21T10:55:35

testuser /tmp/clonerepo $ git add test.txt

testuser /tmp/clonerepo $ git commit -m "Initial commit"
[master (root-commit) b71804b] Initial commit

  create mode 100644 test.txt

testuser /tmp/clonerepo $ git push origin master

```

Hope this helps.
