I would like to use it.. i searched for something like scponly for ssh just for git.. and I found git-shell.

as long as i can modify and setup git-repositories myself, i haven't needed admin-commands, yet...

as mentioned in the thread, i still search for a posibility to tell git to send my identify-file... and possibly set an alias for this command :)

ssh with bash for this account and the keys works... ssh with git-shell does work, too... (What do you think I am? A shell?) but git with keys and ssh transport, that is what i don't get working :)
