Hello,
I'm working on standing up a self-hosted git server. I'd like to keep my
repositories under a dedicated directory, i.e. /srv/git, but I'd also
like to be able to clone a repository using a simple syntax:
git clone git@myserver:repo.git
as opposed to
git clone git@myserver:/srv/git/repo.git
I've not yet found a way to get this to work without keeping the
repositories in the git user's home folder. I've tried using a ~/.ssh/rc
file to chdir into /srv/git and I've tried using the `command=`
parameter in the authorized_keys file; however, both of these fail
because `cd` is not recognized as a valid command by git-shell.
I suppose I could create symlinks from the repositories in /srv/git into
/home/git, but I'm wondering if there's a cleaner way to do this?
Thanks,
Greg
