Since you already have gitosis running then you could also try cloning through the server. git clone g...@servername:My_Project.git If it says something along the lines of "permission denied" or something then it's likely that your $HOME/.ssh directory (and thus your ssh key) is different on your main box vs. on the server. You can create a new key (just like you did for gitosis originally) and add it to your gitosis.conf if that is indeed the case. That'll help you avoid any permission/umask/etc. issues since it'll ensure that the 'git' user is the only one allowed to touch the repos. -- David -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Git for human beings" group.

[git-users] clone to local directory
Hi, I follow the instructions below to set up a git repository with gitosis on my home ubuntu server. I can connect to the repository remotely perfectly and set up a new repository named My_Project. I successfully push the content of My_Project to this repository using the remote computer with an SSH key. Now I want to clone My_Project locally onto another directory within the unbuntu server. How can I do this? The instructions are only to clone remotely. It appears that the clone command allows an "local" option but I haven't been able to get it to work. Thanks. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Git for human beings" group. To post to this group, send email to git-us...@googlegroups.com.
