Hosting git repositories -- Gitolite allows you to setup git hosting on a central server, with very fine-grained access control and many (many!) more powerful features.

Sitaram Chamarty a103417da2 (password access) backward compat breakage for gl-shell-setup; read below
gl-shell-setup has a "run as hosting user" piece that basically
automates the adding of the user's (new) key to the admin repo.

This is now gone.  (It's not that hard to automate yourself if you want
to do it anyway, using gl-admin-push).

I did this because I needed to allow someone in through a gateway, and
realised that that has the exact same needs.  So the whole scheme has
been changed to treat the proxy and the gitolite host as being two
different servers.

At that point it became cumbersome to do the second bit, and I left it
out.

Other changes:
  - you can define exceptions for the default shell in gl-shell
  - the doc has been simplified.

Gitolite README

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.

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