I'm using GIT as my source control system. We have it installed on one of our Linux boxes. Tortoise GIT is my windows client.

This morning I checked in some changes, and tagged the code. I then did a push of my local repository to the remote repository.

When I go to my repository on the unix box and type in git log I get:

fatal: bad default revision 'HEAD'

But when I do a show log using my windows tortoiseGit client the history comes up nicely as per below...

The code has definitely been pushed to the remote repository. I've been able to check by cloning the repository into a different directory.

Does anyone know why I am receiving the fatal: bad default revision 'HEAD'?

p.s. It is a bare repository however I have created other bare repositories which have not had this problem.
