Local machine pushes branch but no files to Remote repo

Question

When I push from my local machine to my remote repo with git it gives no errors. It counts the objects, compresses them and says: 'master > master'. But when I check my remote repo i only see the new branch, there no new files added to the directory. When I try to switch to that branch on the remote server with 'git checkout master' it says iam not in a working tree.

Can anybody help me?

Thanks

PS: The remote repo is initalized with: 'git init'

The remote repository is most likely a bare repo and created with git init --bare.

To see the files, create a separate non bare clone of the bare repository.

To verify the changes are in, use git log
