- move wrap_mkdir() to gitolite.pm
  - remove junk left over from days when dinosaurs ruled the world
  - reuse setup_environment() from gitolite.pm instead of rolling our
    own code for PATH and umask
    part of it's function (the rest is harmless)

  - and most important, remove the last vestiges of the old 'from
    client' install method, in the form of 'if ($GL_PACKAGE_HOOKS)'
    lines

  - clean up the symlinking to be more precisely in line with
    doc/hook-propagation.mkd (especially, remove the 'quirk' that
    package hooks would also get copied to the user hooks area)

Gitolite README

Github users: please read the "wiki" link at the top of the page before submitting issues or pull requests.

If you're really impatient, and you're familiar with Unix and ssh, follow the quick install instructions.

But if you want to do anything meaningful with gitolite you have to spend some time cuddling up to the docs. The complete online documentation starts here -- this is the best starting point for general questions about git, such as what it is, why you would need it, features, contact/mailing list info, and so on.

For convenience, here is a link to the master table of contents, which is very useful to search using your browser's search function.
