Hi Eric, I didn't follow the rest of the thread, so I'm just responding to 
this last error message.

When you init the momo *bare* repo, by default the HEAD pointer in there 
points at refs/heads/master (see the file momo/HEAD). 

This implies that when momo is cloned, the "default" branch will be master. 
However, there is no branch with that name in momo, and therefore you get 
this error message.

You can still checkout either of the *2.1* or *2.2* branches in your momo 
clone.

If you want to assign a default branch when cloning from the momo bare 
repository, you can do it like this:

cd momo #the bare momo, not the clone
git symbolic-ref HEAD refs/heads/2.1
