chmod u+x ~/repositories/gitosis-admin.git/hooks/post-update

Now you can clone the repository gitosis-admin.git from the server using

git clone git@servername:gitosis-admin.git

To add a user with pubkey file username.pub

cp username.pub gitosis-admin/keydir/
(cd gitosis-admin; git commit keydir -m 'added user'; git push)

To give the user access to a repository, add him to a group
(or create a new group for him), and add the repository name
to the ‘writable’ list for that group in gitosis-admin/gitosis.conf
