I have the gitolite and currently created test repositories and configured user rights and all works fine.
What I want now is I have migrated a cvs repository to git by using git cvsimport. I have the newly migrated repository. How I can configure this repository via gitolite and configure users for this repository?
Kindly guide me in right directions!!
You need to clone the gitoite-adin repo, and declare a new repo:
See "adding and removing repos"
Once done, you would add to your exisintg local git repo (the one with the CVS import in it) a new remote:
git remote add gitolite git@server:to
(you can name the remote origin if you want)
And then you would push your local repo to the gitolite-managed one:
git push gitolite master # to initialize the remote repo with master branch
git push gitolite --all # to push all branches
git push gitolite --tags # to push all tags
(git push --all as mentioned in "With GitHub how do I push all branches when adding an existing repo?")
