Well here is what i have done:
cd webstore
git init
git add .
git commit -a -m "initial commit"


Then i go to git.mydomain.com and gitweb displays: "webstore/.git" and
when i try to clone it:
from remote client: git clone http://git.mydomain.com/webstore i get
the warning:
"warning: remote HEAD refers to nonexistent ref, unable to checkout."

So i know my project is not empty...
