I know.

The bare repo referred above to is for transferring a branch between two
separate clones on local disk.  The bare repo is separate from the two
clones named emacs24 and master.

The snipped procedure shows how to create that local repository, and how
to push a branch from one clone and merge it into a branch in the other
clone.
