ssh

If you're installing gitolite, you're a "system admin", like it or not. If you're using the default ssh mode (i.e., not [http][] mode), ssh is a necessary skill. Please take the time to learn at least enough to get passwordless access working.

There are two documents you need to read, in order:

  • [Gitolite and ssh][glssh] explains how gitolite uses openssh features to create any number of virtual users over just one actual (unix) user, and distinguish between them by their public keys.

  • [Ssh troubleshooting][sts] is a rather long document that, as far as I know, covers almost every known ssh related issue. If you find something missing, send me an email with details so I can update it.
