I think the key phrase is in the first sentence: you started with the 
assumption that you wanted to do a push.  Why was that?  My guess is that it 
was in order to share your changes between your machines, and to protect 
against loss of data.  It sounds like Eli thinks the right solution here is to 
have a cloned private repository on the server side.
