Yes, the [svn2git] and [svn] sections are normally set up by git-svn-mirror 
when starting from scratch. 
Yes, you should delete any [branch] sections from the mirror's config, and yes, 
once you do that you can't run git update (or git pull or fetch, for that 
matter) anymore. All input comes from git svn.

Is the receiving bare repo inited and the URL correct? Is this the first push 
to that repo?
