Hello, as far as I remember, Git only stores the executable flag of the current user. Git is a source management tool (version control system); what you need here (IMHO) is a deployment tool here, which Git is not. Best, Gergely On 4 September 2014 10:01, wangfeng wangfeng

You can easily host Git repos using an SSH server and git installed on a company machine. If you have multiple repos, you may want to look at other solutions like gitosis. If you need a whole development environment with code review and such, you might want to take a look at phabricator. On 5 Sep

The only thing I can come up with is this: $ git rev-list --max-parents=0 HEAD It can, though, return more than one result if you have multiple branches from the initial root (e.g. created with git checkout --orphan). In usual workflows, this should give you a unique ID. On 12 September 2014
