Raj, You may find that using Gitolite [1] (and following the documentation that comes with it) to be a good solution to what you are trying to do.

Unix, Linux, and Mac OS X all work equally well. Haven't tried git-daemon on Windows, however I have noticed that Git in general is much slower on Windows and the default memory limit is low, which can cause problems with large repositories. I'd guess that git-daemon might have similar problems. In the past, I have had problems with programs with programs in general accessing shared resources on file shares. I've had permission problems, update problems, and corruption problems when the network fails. I have had much better success with SSH. ~ Andrew Keller -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
Installing GIT Server
Hi, We have decided to use GIT for a huge government implementation, I am looking for some help with installation of GIT SERVER. Few questions:- 1. What platform to choose - UNIX, MAC or Windows? We have lot of windows 2008 installations, and if there are no trade off's we would love to use Windows 2008 server and install the GIT server compoent there. 2. Once that is done, the client machine mostly MAC OSX development machines...will they be able to connect using SSH or file share? Can someone help me with this? -Raj -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
