Overview

This module is used to configure gitolite and to configure git repositories and permissions.

Usage

To start using gitolite you need to include the gitolite main class.

A minimal example might be:

class{'gitolite':
  user     => 'gitolite',
  userhome => '/srv/gitolite',
}

The gitolite::admin class is only used if you like to do all admin work through puppet (like create new repos, users and permissions). If gitolite::admin is not included, you can use the admin git repo to do these tasks (feature of gitolite).

Reference

Find documentation about possible parameters on top of each manifest. Also see REFERENCE.md
