The only issue I ran into was when I mounted the USB stick with Linux's
default options.  I need to specify the option shortname=mixed so that
it doesn't create 'head' instead of 'HEAD' in the repo on the USB stick.

,----[ part of my /etc/fstab ]
| /dev/sdb1 /usb vfat defaults,user,noauto,shortname=mixed 0 0
`----

After that everything worked great for me.
