Always using remote repository in egit

I have gone thru the egit tutorial doc here http://wiki.eclipse.org/EGit/User_Guide.

I now have a git repository with an eclipse project on my laptop and can push this to a remote git repository on git hub. However, this means I have two git repositories - one local and one remote. I'm thinking I'd prefer to just use the remote one only. This would mean any time I commit, it commits to the remote and there is no local repository.

Is it possible to this egit?

Thanks.

You should always have a local repository to work with. First pull the repository to local repository, perform changes and push back to the remote repository.

git is a distributed version control system. By definition this means that each developer has its own repository.

I have not experience with egit but you can configure a hook to automatically make a push after a commit.

Also, in a git cli you could set an alias to make the commit and push process in only one step, but anyway, the local repository will be need.
