将本地git文件夹转换为远程存储库

Question

sorry if my question is too naive. Here is what i am trying to do:

• I want to create a local git repo (git init )-> i did that
• I want to access the same form other machines using ssh -> stuck here
• I have tried installing git bash , but i don't know how to configure ssh which is built in the git bash.
• I did add a ssh config file using git bash and gave as my computername along with domain, since this machine is the server here.

• In the git bash guide, they are adding the public key to github, i dont want that

• In short i have created a git repository by 'git init .'

• I want to access the same using other machines in the same domain using ssh

I don't know how to proceed further, Would anyone be able to help in this case ?

Answer 1

I'd create a --bare repository somewhere accessible via SSH and push , fetch , merge , pull to and from that repository by adding a remote origin to the ones you created.

Something like

/home/git $ git init --bare your_repository.git

/your/current/repository $ git remote add origin /home/git/your_repository.git

And from another machine

/client/path $ git init
/client/path $ git remote add origin user@server:/home/git/your_repository.git
/client/path $ git pull origin

Then

/your/current/repository $ git fetch origin
/your/current/repository $ git merge origin/master
/your/current/repository $ git push origin master

/client/path $ git fetch origin
/client/path $ git merge origin/master
/client/path $ git push origin master

That's just an example, the --bare repository can be anywhere.
