using git remote push/pull with your URL domain

i am trying to use git on my computer/webserver and want to do the following at 3:20 on till about the end https://teamtreehouse.com/library/git-basics/working-with-remote-repositories/cloning

the command it says to add a remote is this"git remote add webSite1 pathToTheRepoButWithURL " I did this and it works

git remote add webSite1 'http://mySite.com/first/dev/'

but then I tried to push with this command

git push webSite1 master

and got the following error

"fatal: repository 'http://mySite.com/first/dev/' not found"

I have put the repository folder in my website file path where index.html landing page has a folder name "first "and then inside that folder "dev" repsitory is placed

I was able to push and pull with just the paths with out the url involved.

I know git hub has this capability but would like it on my site before I have thing go public.

thanks for any help

one other note i found somewhere ,that is permissions need to be set. so I went to the folder located on the webSite Server and it shows it with read permissions only. now I have tried to use the sudo command with the chmod command to change those since it did not work without sudo. the only problem there is sudo command is not found.

this is where I will leave you I am going to try to install this sudo command and then maybe from there I will be able to give permissions then use git to push with the URL.

if any body thanks I am on the right path or if they believe I should try something else I am all ears. but as of now I have not solved this yet.
