Hi, I just installed Git, and I would like to configure it on my server for private repositories. I have some questions about the user "git" and its configuration. I found a guide which suggest to create user as CODE: SELECT ALL <http://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=114670#>adduser --shell /usr/bin/git-shell --disabled-login --home /home/git --disabled-password git But without password and login I have some problems when from client I try to connect using git command and it requires password (that is not set) or from server for some configuration using git user. At the end I followed the instruction described on this guide http://git-scm.com/book/en/Git-on-the-S ... the-Server <http://git-scm.com/book/en/Git-on-the-Server-Setting-Up-the-Server> I created user git with password CODE: SELECT ALL <http://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=114670#>sudo adduser git
and all it works. My passwd file contains this line CODE: SELECT ALL <http://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=114670#> git:x:1002:1002:,,,:/home/git:/bin/bash I try to change as described on guide, but if I set CODE: SELECT ALL <http://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=114670#> git:x:1000:1000:,,,:/home/git:/usr/bin/git-shell from client received that I haven't right permission. So, at the end, I set this as CODE: SELECT ALL <http://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=114670#> git:x:1002:1002:,,,:/home/git:/usr/bin/git-shell In addition, I created user with password, but from client, for every push/pull action it requires me a password. How can I set git user to work properly and increase security? Thanks a lot -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Git for human beings" group.
