Description

Gitolite is an access control layer on top of git, which allows access control down to the branch level, including specifying who can and cannot rewind a given branch.

Gitolite lets you use a single user on a server to host many git repositories and provide access to many developers, without having to give them real userids on or shell access to the server. Authentication is most commonly done using sshd, but you can also use httpd if you prefer.

Gitolite can restrict who can read from (clone/fetch) or write to (push) a repository. It can also restrict who can push to what branch or tag, which is very important in a corporate environment.

In the other systems

The newest version among them is 2.3.1, as upstream numbers it.

Message after installing

Final gitolite installation instructions:

Any ssh user can be a gitolite provider. Simply run the following command as
the user:

/usr/local/bin/gl-setup /path/to/admin.ssh.key.pub

This will setup up the configuration files for gitolite, designating where the
repositories are located and other options.

The admin ssh key allows full access to the gitolite-admin repository where
additional users and repositories can be configured.

By default, the git user is created for use by gitolite.
