No, but still highly recommended. Pushing to a non-bare repo is...
possible but finicky (a non bare repo has always a "checked out"
branch: now imagine that one isn't clean. What's to happen?

See e.g. [1] for some discussion.

I'd recommend: always use bares as remotes (unless you really know
what you're doing -- or equivalently: unless you're into... learning).

Cheers
