Rocket's port of Git, is not the server component, only the Git client. So, z/OS cannot act as the Git server.

I understand GitHub E being 'the source' and then git clone etc. to local or z/OS. What I'm saying is... I want Rocket Git for z/OS to be 'the source', and then just use GitHub as the front-end for it. Don't want it to make copies of what's on Git for Z. Z should remain the system of record; don't want to put SYS1.PARMLIB for example on GitHub E. Even if GitHub E has auth etc., a very small percent of people in the company need to even be aware of SYS1.PARMLIB. Putting it on GitHub E means it's wide open for anyone in the company (with access to GitHub E). Just trying to understand what can be done to - a) keep Git on Z as 'the source' b) hide the MF-Git-linked repositories from the general GitHub E crowd - KB ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐ Original Message ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐ On Thursday, August 5th, 2021 at 7:17 PM, Pew, Curtis G <curtis....@austin.utexas.edu> wrote: > On Aug 5, 2021, at 8:27 AM, kekronbekron > 000002dee3fcae33-dmarc-requ...@listserv.ua.edu wrote: > > > If a company has GitHub Enterprise, can we hook that to Rocket's Git for > > z/OS, running on z/OS. > > > > Will that work without GitHub Enterprise making a copy/mirror of the > > original repos on Z? > > > > It would be amazing to keep Z's stuff managed by Git on Z, but then just > > use GitHub's excellent UI and workflows. > > Well, if the question is “can you use Rocket’s port of git for z/OS with > GitHub Enterprise?” then the answer is definitely yes.
