title: Git shows the error "does not appear to be a git repository fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly"
body: <p>I just installed GIT in my CentOS Linux server and configured it. When I create a new repository using <code>git init</code> it works fine and gives output of the command also.<br>
  But whenever I try to clone the remote repository into my local computer folder it gives the following message: </p>
  
  <pre><code>fatal: '/public_html/repositories/git-test/.git' does not appear to be a git repository
  fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Has anyone come across this issue, what could be the reason?</p>
