yep, it's not the intended way to use the tool.  ".got" in a worktree
is used to store other metadata, not the repository itself.  You might
be lucky using another directory, e.g. ".repo", but I would suggest
keeping your stuff elsewhere.  I have a ~/git/ directory for that, but
other places are fine.  When I started using got I used to create
foo/foo.repo with the bare repository and checkout the worktrees as
foo/main, foo/branch-x, etc.

This has nothing to do with your local setup, it's an error from the
server (that could be printed nicely...)

I suppose that the user gotd is running as (_gotd?) doesn't have the
right permissions for the repo.  When you're using gotd, it should be
its user to have RW permissions on the bare repository, not the user
you're ssh'ing to (although that user needs to be `permit'-ted in the
repository stanza of gotd.conf)

Can you show an excerpt of your gotd.conf and `ls -lah path/to/repo' ?
