在Linux中设置git服务器和客户端

Question

i am new to git and now i am trying to set up a git server and want to access the server from client.

referred many links but those are not helping me. i tried with the link http://davedevelopment.co.uk/2010/12/05/how-to-install-gitolite-on-ubuntu-10-10-maverick-meerkat.html . after the final step in the document i didn't know how to proceed.

can anyone give the details? thanks in advance.

Answer 1

if you have cloned a repository on your client you are ready to start coding...

git commit

to commit changes locally, and

git push

to push your changes to the server.

Answer 2

What is missing on the above answers is how to push on the server a new repo.

Suppose that in the gitolite config file you have a repo named my_repo, you can add to the server an existing local repo this way:

cd my_repo
git remote add gitolite git@your.git.server:my_repo
git push gitolite master

You have to type ONLY ONCE the second line above. After that, you only have to push.
