This is called a "bare" repository. Now, you have the keyword to
RTFM ;-).
You can do something like
mv linux-repo linux-tree
cd linux-tree
mv .git ../linux-repo
cd ../linux-repo
git config core.bare true
(and optionnaly remove linux-tree/)
or you could have used "git clone --bare" when you cloned the
repository.
