With regard to the new version and old repos, am I correct in assuming
that we can upgrade our old repo (a bare one) to the new git by first
installing the new git, and then doing this:

% cd /repos/git
% mv project project.old_git
% git --bare clone project.old_git project

or is there something else we must do?

In the case of a bare repo, there isn't anything to do.

So, I assume I need to tell our developers that once we have installed
the new git, they will need to set aside their old repos and just
clone again from our company repo?
