The simplest conf to do what you want in gitolite is something like this:
    repo [a-zA-Z0-9]..*
        C   =   @all
        RW+ =   @all

But of course your *user* authentication will probably change quite a bit, since gitolite runs as one Unix user and merely simulates many "gitolite users", while in the NFS method each of your devs probably has a full login to the server.
