====== git (on Site5) ======
You need to set up [[ssh_access]] to be able to act as the developer on a project.

====== set up a bare git repo ======
  * ssh into your account
  * create a new folder to hold your repo<code>
mkdir public_html/git/path/to/repo.git && cd public_html/git/path/to/repo.git
</code>
  * create a new "bare" repo<code>
git init --bare
</code>
    * if multiple users will be pushing to this...<code>
git init --bare shared=group
</code>
  * since this will be served over http, you need to set up a post commit hook for [[update-server-info]] to run or else the public will not be able to clone your repo; if all users were using git:// or ssh://, this wouldn't be necessary
  * exit from your remote ssh connection
  * cd into your local project, and add the remote<code>
git remote add origin remoteuser@remotehost.com:public_html/git/path/to/repo.git
</code>
    * ::!:: I'm not sure why, but specifying this with ssh:// protocol did not work, but leaving it off works fine
  * push your local master to the remote repo<code>
git push origin master
</code>
  * if you want this to be known as something other than origin, change origin as desired
  * even though the post commit hook is set up, you should run this once manually inside the remote repo directory<code>
git update-server-info
</code>
  * you may also want to set up [[gitweb]] on your account

===== developer user clone =====
<code>
git clone remoteuser@remotehost.com:path/to/repo.git localdest
</code>

Make a subdomain called "git" in SiteAdmin first.
