-<p>They will be stored as bare, meaning we will only store the <code>.git</code> folder not the actual files (called the <em>workspace</em>) to save space.<br />
-It’s a convention to to suffix a bare repository with the <code>.git</code> extension.</p>
-<div class="sourceCode" id="cb4"><pre class="sourceCode sh"><code class="sourceCode bash"><span id="cb4-1"><a href="#cb4-1" aria-hidden="true" tabindex="-1"></a><span class="fu">mkdir</span> repo.git</span>

-<blockquote>
-<p>Look at the content of a bare repository and the <code>.git</code> directory in a regular one to convince yourself that they’re the same.</p>
-</blockquote>
-<h3 id="ssh-authentication">SSH Authentication</h3>
-<p>You could add a password for the git user but it’s ultimately safer to user a key pair.</p>
-<p>If you don’t know what that is you generate it with <code>ssh-keygen</code>.<br />
-Follow the steps and it will create <code>id_rsa</code> (private key) and <code>id_rsa.pub</code> (public key) in <code>~/.ssh</code>.<br />
-On your server you append your <strong>public</strong> key to <code>/home/git/.ssh/authorized_keys</code></p>
-<p>At this point you should be able to login as the git user via ssh</p>
-<div class="sourceCode" id="cb6"><pre class="sourceCode sh"><code class="sourceCode bash"><span id="cb6-1"><a href="#cb6-1" aria-hidden="true" tabindex="-1"></a><span class="fu">ssh</span> git@<span class="op">&lt;</span>host<span class="op">&gt;</span></span></code></pre></div>

-<h2 id="better-server-interaction-with-git-shell">Better server interaction with git-shell</h2>
-<p>Permitting the git user to have a regular shell can be too permissive, we would like to restrict him to a few repository actions, like creation/deletion, importing (clone), listing.</p>
-<div class="sourceCode" id="cb8"><pre class="sourceCode sh"><code class="sourceCode bash"><span id="cb8-1"><a href="#cb8-1" aria-hidden="true" tabindex="-1"></a><span class="bu">echo</span> <span class="va">$(</span><span class="fu">which</span> git-shell<span class="va">)</span> <span class="op">&gt;&gt;</span> /etc/shells<span class="kw">`</span> # <span class="ex">Register</span> the git-shell as a valid shell</span>

-<p>If you try to ssh as the git user, you will be greeted with something along the line of:</p>
-<pre><code>fatal: Interactive git shell is not enabled.
-hint: ~/git-shell-commands should exist and have read and execute access.
-Connection to &lt;host&gt; closed.</code></pre>
-<p>As suggested by the hint we have to create the directory <code>/home/git/git-shell-commands</code> and put the commands (executable) available to the git user.</p>

-<p>This script create a new repository in <code>/srv/git</code>.<br />
-Put it under <code>git-shell-commands/create</code> and make it executable then try to ssh as the git user once again.<br />
-You will be prompted with <code>git&gt;</code>, you can only execute the <code>create &lt;repository&gt;</code> and <code>exit</code> command.</p>
-<blockquote>
-<p>You can probably create the <code>delete</code>, <code>import</code> and <code>list</code> scripts yourself.<br />
-If you add a <code>help</code> script, it will be ran at the beginning of the connection. It can be used to add a greeting message.</p>
-</blockquote>
-<h2 id="allow-anyone-to-clone-with-git-daemon">Allow anyone to clone with git-daemon</h2>
-<p>Cloning with ssh is fine but only the people with ssh access can do it, we would like anyone to clone.<br />
-git-daemon does precisely that, after running it you will be able to run <code>git clone git://&lt;host&gt;/&lt;repository&gt;</code></p>
-<div class="sourceCode" id="cb11"><pre class="sourceCode sh"><code class="sourceCode bash"><span id="cb11-1"><a href="#cb11-1" aria-hidden="true" tabindex="-1"></a><span class="fu">git</span> daemon --reuseaddr --base-path=/srv/git/ /srv/git/</span></code></pre></div>
-<p>Follow the instruction of <a href="https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Git-on-the-Server-Git-Daemon">this</a> tutorial if you want to know how to make it a service</p>
-<h3 id="publicprivate-repository">Public/private repository</h3>
-<p>You may want to introduce a public/private distinction for your repositories.<br />
-A simple way to do this is by creating a <code>public</code> directory in <code>/srv/git</code> which will contain symbolic link to the repository in <code>/srv/git</code>.</p>
-<pre><code>/srv/git/
- |- foo.git/
- |- bar.git/
- |- qux.git/
- |- public/
- |- foo.git -&gt; /srv/git/foo.git
- |- bar.git -&gt; /srv/git/bar.git</code></pre>
-<blockquote>
-<p>Change the git daemon to only serve the public repositories <code>git daemon --reuseaddr --base-path=/srv/git/public /srv/git/public</code>.</p>
-</blockquote>
-<blockquote>
-<p>Add a <code>publish</code> and <code>unpublish</code> script in <code>git-shell-commands/</code>.</p>
-</blockquote>
-<h2 id="generate-a-static-website">Generate a static website</h2>
-<p>Here we will create a site that look’s like <a href="https://git.suckless.org">this</a> with <a href="https://nginx.org">nginx</a>, <a href="https://git.codemadness.org/stagit/">stagit</a> and a few scripts.<br />
-If you don’t like the minimalist appearance of the site, <a href="https://git.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Interfaces,_frontends,_and_tools#Web_Interfaces">here</a> is a list of alternatives.</p>
-<h3 id="nginx">nginx</h3>
-<pre><code>server {
- root /var/www/git; # where our website&#39;s files will be located
- index index.html;
- # It&#39;s a convention to put it in a git. subdomain.
- server_name git.&lt;hostname&gt; www.git.&lt;hostname&gt;;
- location / {
- try_files $uri $uri/ =404;
- }
-}</code></pre>
-<p>Put this configuration file in <code>/etc/nginx/sites-available</code>.<br />
-Enable the site <code>ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available /etc/nginx/sites-enable</code></p>
-<h3 id="stagit">stagit</h3>
-<p>Stagit is pretty small tool so it won’t take long to install it from sources.</p>
-<pre><code>git clone git://git.codemadness.org/stagit
-cd stagit
-make
-make install</code></pre>
-<ul>
-<li><code>stagit /path/to/repository</code>. - generate a static pages for a repository in the current directory.</li>
-<li><code>stagit-index repo1 repo2 repo3 &gt; index.html</code> - generate an index for multiple repositories.</li>
-</ul>
-<blockquote>
-<p>Read the man page of both of these commands for more information</p>
-</blockquote>
-<h4 id="git-hooks">git hooks</h4>
-<p>Git hooks are scripts located in <code>&lt;repository&gt;/.git/hooks</code> that will be run on a certain action.<br />
-The hook we’re interested in is <code>post-receive</code>, it will be ran after someone pushes to the repository.<br />
-We can use it to regenerate the repository’s pages and the website’s index.</p>
