It may be worth posting your local got.conf as got is reporting that it
can't find the remote repo:

For reference, this is what I use for sending to my servers (with using
gotd btw):

$ cat got.conf 
remote "server1" {
  server server1.com
  protocol ssh
  repository "/home/simon/repo/simonh/simonh-scripts.git"
}

remote "server2" {
  server server1.com
  protocol ssh
  repository "/home/simon/repo/simonh/simonh-scripts.git"
}
