getting started

The quickest install, assuming your $PATH contains $HOME/bin, is:

get the software

git clone git://github.com/sitaramc/gitolite

# (until this becomes "master")
cd gitolite
git checkout -f g3

If you don't like that, there are [other install methods][install].

Once the install is done, setup:

gitolite setup -pk your-name.pub

And that's it.

Next steps are usually [adding][add] users and repos and learning about [access control][conf].
