Yes, I did.  Please try it now.  I think I want a post-commit hook that
pushes everything to the public repository...  I don't see why I ever
would want to commit anything and not push it to the public server
directly.  The only reason would be if I'm offline, but then the push
would simply fail.  I wonder of I'm missing some git understanding.

The underful/overful \hbox warnings are harmless.  Can you post the
entire log?  I suspect you need to install the 'tetex-extra' package.
