I would certainly go for making that also a git repo instead of just a file-based backup server. This has has 2 benefits: (1) it allows people to work together in a more controlled fashion than ad hoc push/pull from each other (2) being a full-blown git repo, it can store a lot more history, *and* it's faster and uses less space/network bw doing so. Such servers usually have a "bare repository", meaning what's inside the ".git" subdirectory is all there is, and there is nothing actually checked out. -- 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
