Comment on Hosting a git repository on dreamhost by Kris

Thanks for these instructions. I’m getting a “unable to chdir or not a git archive” error. The path it is referring to is /home/myusername/sub.mydomain.com/test-repo/test-repo.git

I have a repository in submydomain.com/test-repo which has directories of branches, hooks, etc….

Any suggestions so I can get this to work?

Thanks for publishing this guide. It is much better than other resources that I’ve found. I do have a question, though. I have gotten everything working and have also successfully added .htaccess password-protection for my git repository, but now I want to give push as well as pull access to people other than myself. As you say in your writeup, it looks like:

$ git clone http://username@example.com/git/repo-name.git

only gives read access. I don’t really want to give all the people that I might collaborate with in the future shell access to my dreamhost account, is there a way that I can let them submit changes to the git repository using the .htaccess user/password system?

Thanks very much,
Naveen.

Actually you don’t need git installed there.
Just mount the remote filesystem (directory) locally using sshfs:
sshfs -o workaround=rename -o idmap=user -C -o uid=1000 -o gid=100 user@mydreamhostdomain.com:/home/user/gitrepo.git localrepo.git

Where localrepo.git is an empty folder where the remote bare repository will be mounted.
It works perfectly here (I’m at bluehost though), let me know if you have trouble.

I’ve used your advice and made my soundcard beep on errors in gnome terminal, etc.

But if I have any other device using my soundcard i.e rythmbox or amarok it doesn’t work.. any ideas?

Nice guide! I followed it to the letter, but no repositories show up in gitweb. If I click on the “TXT” button, I see my repositories. I don’t know why I don’t see anything in the main interface. There is the header line (Project Description Owner Last Change), but nothing below it.
