Is there a good way to set up an RPi3 box as a GIT server and get
going with that?
Can GIT work in a way that would be comparable to CVS regarding
concurrent development etc?
Any suggestions on where to start?
Git doesn't require a "server" - there is no "git server" like you find
with CVS or SubVersion. Gitolite is a very fast and simple solution to
get a shared Git environment up and running in the traditional
client/server model that CVS and SubVersion users are used to. A true
distributed environment will have no single "server location" of the
source code.
There is a Git Daemon that can be run on Unix or Windows systems. But
this is in essence just to supply you with access to a Git repository
via the much more efficient git:// protocol, instead of abusing the
http:// protocol. The recommended way to access a Git repo is via SSH
(which Gitolite also uses). You supply you public key, and don't have to
bother with usernames and weak passwords.
