Hm.  We tell people to set up public repo's by doing something like:

	git clone --bare ~/proj proj.git
	touch proj.git/git-daemon-export-ok
	scp -r proj.git example.com:

Is that going to hit the same problem if the public server has an older
git version?

It will, but I think you should teach people --mirror pushing these
days, which was specifically invented for priming the public
repository.

That way, the administrator at example.com, as long as he initializes an
empty repository with suitable daemon-export-ok and necessary hooks
(which can be automated via templates), does not even have to allow you
a full ssh access.
