While I wholeheartedly agree with Junio here, you may also find

remote.<name>.receivepack

useful, see git-push(1) and git-config(1) for more information.

This seems like the best way to fix this issue, however it isn't clear
from the man page what I need to put in my ~/.gitconfig. With the
following in .gitconfig

[remote]
glue.receivepack = /home/ram/opt/git/bin/git-receive-pack

I get the following error when trying to push

[ram@skymoo glue]$ git push
ssh://newberry.ihepa.ufl.edu/~/public_html/git/glue.git
fatal: bad config file line 6 in /Users/ram/.gitconfig

so this is clearly not the right entry. Can someone please give me a
push in the right direction?

Cheers
