Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes!

It took me a while to realize that a git repository, as soon as you've
cloned it, is *self-contained*, and that commiting to the repository
and synchronizing with a different git repository are two completely
different things (contrary to CVS).  This should be pronounced more in
the CVS->git guide.
