Hi, all,

Thank you for that wonderful document, it worked flawlessly for CentOS 6.4 with one exception:

> [Tue Dec 17 12:07:42 2013] [error] [client 10.2.32.197] File does not exist: /var/www/html/gpu-code.git/info/refs

I did some searching and found this StackOverflow answer:

> fatal: https://github.com/username/repository-name.git/info/refs not found: did you run git update-server-info on the server?

only my client (git version 1.8.3.4 (Apple Git-47)) did not suggest `update-server-info’.

Running `git update-server-info’ after `git --bare init’ worked and I can now push over HTTP.

Thank you, again!
