Supposedly a stupid question, but did you really do

$ cd /repos
$ mkdir someproj.git
$ git init --bare someproj.git

on the server before attempting your push operation?

I mean, Git won't auto-initialize repositories on push; it is only
capable of pushing from one existing repository to another existing
repository -- the latter might be completely empty but still it must be
a proper Git repository created by `git init`.
