Instead of inventing (and failing) its own protocol and its own
authentication git uses established solutions for authentication: SSH
for "smart" server, and WebDAV for push via (currently only "dumb")
HTTPS protocol.

There exist solutions that help with setting up SSH for git:
git-shell, ssh_acl, and I think most commonly used Gitosis (see
seminal reference about Gitosis on http://git.or.cz/gitwiki/BlogPosts).

Git is distributed version control system: checkin (named 'commit' in
git) and checkout are _local_ operations.  Fetch (getting new changes
from remote repository) and clone (creating new local repository
following or forking specified remote repository) can be done via
local filesystem, via git:// protocol, via "dumb" HTTP, and via SSH.
Push (sending changes to remote repository) needs autheticated
channel: most common used is SSH, but you can also use WebDAV with
HTTPS.

There are web interfaces for Git, something like SVN::Web or ViewVC,
like gitweb (in Perl, developed in git.git repository) and cgit (in C).
See also "Web interfaces" section on InterfacesFrontendsAndTools page
on git wiki.

If by 'checkin' you mean publishing changes to a server (i.e. push in
git terminology), see for example contrib/hooks/post-receive-email
hook.

Please learn that Git is _different_ from Subversion, and not try to
follow your SVN workflow and expectations blindly.
