Hey,  assuming you have shell access into your laptop, create a user named
git.  You don't have to do this but you want to give everyone access to an
account on the laptop.  You could also create a usergroup and add the
project folder to that group and give all your developers access to that
group.

Either-way once everyone is able to log onto the laptop make a new directory
called project.git.  Then go into that directory and use git --bare init.

Assuming you created a user named git you can then check the code out via

git clone git@localhost:project.git

to start things off from the source you will be working on you can then use:

git init
touch 'Readme'
git add Readme
git commit -m 'Initial Comit'
git remote add origin git@ip:project.git
git push origin master
