If you are on an internal 'local (file) network' I would expect that you can simply use the URL that you would use to look at the same folder with Win Explorer, e.g. \\PC-3\OtherGuy\HisRepo (note this uses the windows backslash separator) I use this method with Git Extensions and Git for Windows (msysgit compiled) at work. It doesn't need usernames or passwords as teh permissions are done by the file system.
If you are accessing via an intranet, or are using Cygwin then the linux style is more likely, and don't forget to munge (adjust) the colon in "C:" ----- Original Message ----- From: Leonidas Savvides To: Philip Oakley Sent: Sunday, April 07, 2013 6:43 AM Subject: Re: [git-users] connectng 2 win PCs in local network - clone folder to other PC YES IT HELPS...

This should populate the directory with the 'copy' of the remote PC-1. Create and checkout your development branch for that PC-n. Note that you do not have a central bare repository machine. All your remotes are working machines, so there is a potential for collision if one person tries to push a branch that is checked out (and possibly dirty with in-work, uncommitted changes) on the remote machine. I believe git will refuse, but I'm not sure. You can now 'push' that branch back to PC-1, and 'fetch' from PC-1 any work they did. Like wise you can push work from PC-2 to PC-4 if they are want to exchange work on a feature they are working on (and fetch back) I would advice never to 'pull' in this situation as it attempts an auto merge, but to do a distinct two step of 'fetch' and then 'merge'. It gives you a breathing space just in case. (option to require it to be a ff, and clean tree?) Designate one machine as the location of the primary reference for which ever branch you end up using as "master", and set up some admin to stage those updates gracefully with team emails to notify when updates are in place.
