Give access to one git repository for specific user

The challenge is as follows. I have a GIT server with many repositories. My goal is to give access to GIT server for new created user, but set priveleges to access only one repository, not all of them.

Is it possible?

Thanks.

Solution

  • git doesn't have builtin authentication, you need additional tools. For SSH the tool is gitolite. You can configure fine-grained access control.

    You can also install web-based development environments, see a partial list at Free GIT Server with Web GUI a la BitBucket/GitHub.
