I think I started to clone the repo in a shallow way
(SparkleShare asked if I want to clone the complete history,
and I probably answered "no" )

Is there a way to repair this situation ?
(Except doing a complete re-clone ?)

I think git don't accept push from shallow repo. I've ever encounter
this problem. I UNshallow it, then every thing will work:

$ git fetch --unshallow origin

This command will convert a shallow repository to a complete one.
See git-fetch(1) and git-clone(1).

Since v1.9.0 (14 Feb '14.) you can do various push/pull from a shallow 
clone (I'd asked this way back 
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6900103/why-cant-i-push-from-a-shallow-clone 
and noted when it was corrected/improved)

That's not to say that you don't have to take care about your local 
depth being sufficiently inclusive.

I'm sure that sometime a --timedepth=<time_t time> will eventually be 
coded by someone sufficiently in need. ;-)
