What leads you to think you will have problems? Why would there be more of a problem on a network file system as opposed to local file system that can be accessed by multiple users? Linus seemed to think it should work: http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/122670 And "git init" specifically has a "shared" option: --shared[=(false|true|umask|group|all|world|everybody|0xxx)] Specify that the git repository is to be shared amongst several users. This allows users belonging to the same group to push into that repository. When specified, the config variable "core.sharedRepository" is set so that files and directories under $GIT_DIR are created with the requested permissions. When not specified, git will use permissions reported by umask(2). -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
