Steps to reproduce:

before I try this out, I have a few queries:

 1. locally set up a git archive:
    mkdir dummy.git
    cd dummy.git
    git init --bare
 2. Upload this directory to the server.
    I did do this using KDE's dolphin via WebDAV.
 3. Clone this remote repository:
    git clone https://webdav.smartdrive.web.de/dummy.git my_dummy

You didn't run git update-server-info before doing the clone; cloning
wouldn't work cos git can't find a info/refs file. Perhaps you did do
it and unintentionally left it out from your procedure listed here?

 4. Create a local commit:
    cd my_dummy
    touch dummy.c
    git commit -a

I assume you want to commit dummy.c? But you didn't tell git to track
it in the first place (git add dummy.c).

 5. Push this commit up to the remote repository:
    git push origin master

I also find it strange that git only pushed 1 object from your git
push output, when usually there would be a tree, a blob and a commit
to push for a new commit.
