Hi all,

I am a new user to GIT. Read few docs in web ..I want to know few things..

If I have a repository, how to prevent push from other repo's into mine master's? I want to prevent the commits from all developers and allow only few ppl to commit to masters..

Thanks for sharing the info on this...

That's good, since your mind is clear yet. :)

In general, I would suggest reading the user manual and everyday.txt, both are under Documentation/.

Second, read man githooks, and then you'll understand how to use the mentioned hook.
