Bare Git Repository in your CS Home directory

SSH to a CS server

ssh cnetid@linux.cs.uchicago.edu

Initialize a bare repo in your CS home directory

Note that a bare repo cannot be edited directly. You will need to checkout the repository elsewhere in your home directory.

$ mkdir $HOME/gitbare/myproject.git
$ cd $HOME/gitbare/myproject.git
$ git init --bare --shared

Check out your repository

Even if you are on one of the linux.cs servers you will need to checkout the bare repo.

git clone cnetid@linux.cs.uchicago.edu:~/gitbare/myproject.git

Example

laptop:~$ ssh kauffman3@linux.cs.uchicago.edu
kauffman3@linux3:~$ mkdir myproject.git
kauffman3@linux3:~$ cd myproject.git/
kauffman3@linux3:~/gitbare/myproject.git$ git init --bare --shared
Initialized empty shared Git repository in /home/kauffman3/gitbare/myproject.git/
kauffman3@linux3:~/gitbare/myproject.git$ cd
