Creating remote git repository?

Creating remote git repository?

[essam Ganadily]

given that git is an old and mature product i wounder why there is no
command line (git.exe in windows) way of creating a remote git
repository?

"git remote create repo myreponame"

frankly speaking i know that our friends in the linux kernel project
never felt the need to create remote repository because they probably
rarely need that but i guess their merciful hearts could have some
feeling for the rest of us?

Why not run the commands mkdir myreponame; cd myreponame; git init .... under an SSH command on the destination host. That should get you what you want.
