This is generally handled by using either `git annex sync --content`, which will make the laptops upload new files to the server before they push the git repository to it, or by using the git-annex assistant (on the laptops or perhaps on the server) to automatically copy files. Either way, you configure [[preferred_content]] settings to control which repositories want which files.

A git repository is a `.git` directory (or `git.bare` for a bare repository).
A working tree is the directory that contains the `.git` directory.
That is standard git terminology; git-annex does not change this at all really. The only difference is that a file added to git-annex is in both the repository and the working tree at the same time, rather than their being 2 local copies of the file (which would need twice the disk space so not good for large files).
`git annex sync` commits any changes to files in the working tree, and pushes those changes to other remotes. You need to pass --content to also make git-annex upload the files to other remotes. Once a remote has been pushed to, you can run `git annex merge` in it to update its working tree to reflect the pushed changes (`git annex sync` also does that merge).
To automatically sync changes to remotes, you can run the git-annex assistant.

Note that there has apparently been an API break, so this special remote may not work anymore. See: <http://git-annex.branchable.com/forum/MegaAnnex_not_working./>
