Chapter 3. Your Users and Gitolite

Now that we have a working installation of Gitolite, it's time to talk about how users interact with a Gitolite-managed system, and what they need to know to start using it. This will allow you to get some of your advanced users to start using the system while you continue to learn about Gitolite as we progress. As an administrator, you will be making a lot of decisions in terms of things such as naming conventions for repositories as well as branches, how tight or relaxed the access rules will be, and many more aspects that you will learn going forward. These advanced users could help by giving you feedback or acting as sounding boards for these decisions.
