Ed -

to clarify - your clients all have the git remote repo mounted with SMB and
then they use the "Local Protocol" ?

This is fine for some environments, but giving everyone r/w mounts to the
repo file system can be a little dangerous.
(for git connection protocols, see:
https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Git-on-the-Server-The-Protocols  )

Therefore I would think that it would be nice for many to have a git server
port for z/OS that would run with the ssh protocol.

Then again, for many I wouldn't see a huge benefit to having a git server
on z/OS at all.   The server could be anywhere that is vigorously secure
and backed up.
