Hi...
Can I set up a GIT server w/o administration privileges on a Solaris machine?
I think this should be a simple question to answer. I have looked in the archives - but most, if not all, who post are setting up GIT servers using administration privileges. I have a shell account on a Solaris box where I can create web pages and trigger the execution of scripts from those pages...but no administration right. So, I started down the path of privately installing software. However, it became apparent that I need git listing on this port and running that daemon...both of which are almost impossible with out administration rights.
So, is there a way to get some basic GIT functionality through serving up web pages and executing CGI scripts. Is there somewhere I can read up on this type of server installation?
-thank you
