(docfix) you need RW+ to overwrite a tag
to my eternal shame (considering how proud I am of my documentation) this was not mentioned anywhere! I'm getting old... thanks to Pierre Habouzit for catching this (also slipped in a few other minor doc changes. I wouldn't mix unrelated stuff in a commit when doing code changes but it seems ok to do this for docfixes, for some reason).

Gitolite allows you to setup git hosting on a central server, with

fine-grained access control and many (many!) more powerful features.

@ -110,6 +110,10 @@ A "rewind" is more often called a "non-fast forward push"; see git docs for
|
|||
what that is. The `+` was chosen because it is part of the "git push" syntax
|
||||
for non-ff pushes.
|
||||
|
||||
Note that *tags* are generally considered "write once", so they are treated
|
||||
specially by gitolite: you need rewind permission (`RW+`) to *overwrite* a
|
||||
tag with a new value.
|
||||
|
||||
In a later section you'll see some more advanced permissions.
