In addition to what Thomas said, note that there are specialized programs intended to manage several repositories on a server: gitolite [1] and gitosis [2]. Setting up a server by hand is simpler, but if you intend to use SSH transport for accessing it, it means every developer will need a proper user account on the server, and all these accounts should have correct r/w permissions on the repository. Depending on your requirements this might be a somewhat complicated task to carry out properly, and then these specialized solutions might help, especially if they're packaged for your server OS. 1. https://github.com/sitaramc/gitolite 2. http://swik.net/gitosis -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Git for human beings" group.
