Currently I have an website on a .zip file containing also the .git directory and all the history. I want it to be imported into an Assembla git repository preserving the history of all previous changes. Is there an easy way of doing it?

extract your zip, navigate to it in your shell, and do git push <git assembla url> :. this should push all the refs to the new assembla repo.

I am trying to do so but I get: No refs in common and none specified; doing nothing. Perhaps you should specify a branch such as 'master'. fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly error: failed to push some refs to 'git@git.assembla.com:xxxx.git' What else can I do? – Jacobo Tibaquira May 06 '10 at 01:41

you may need to update your .git/config file and remove an existing origin definition, just delete those lines. Then follow instructions in assembla: git remote add origin git@git.assembla.com:
.git git push origin master – PhoebeB Feb 27 '11 at 12:20

If you cannot push to an assembla repo, check your ssh keys, like in this thread.
ssh -v git@git.assembla.com
And see if there was not too much login errors in your tries:
