git (on Site5)

You need to set up ssh_access to be able to act as the developer on a project.

create a new folder to hold your repo

mkdir public_html/git/path/to/repo.git && cd public_html/git/path/to/repo.git

create a new “bare” repo
```
git init --bare
```
- if multiple users will be pushing to this…
```
git init --bare shared=group
```
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
```
git remote add origin remoteuser@remotehost.com:public_html/git/path/to/repo.git
```
- :: 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> ===== public user clone ===== Make a subdomain called “git” in SiteAdmin first. <code> git clone http://git.remotehost.com/Project.git </code> ===== External Links ===== * http://toolmantim.com/thoughts/setting_up_a_new_remote_git_repository
