The main problem is that the _useradd_ is launched with -m parameter that
creates the home directory to gitolite user. If user already exists then
the home directory is not recreated. IMHO is better don't use -m modifier
and do something like this:
if [[ ! -d /var/lib/gitolite ]] ; then
mkdir

No, it shouldn't. A deleted user presents a security issue, since the package
has no way of knowing if there's any files/dirs left owned by that
Ahoi,
I was removing gitolite because I fucked my setup up. When I
reinstalled it to start from scratch, I ran into a problem.
The /var/lib/gitolite folder wasn't created when I reinstalled the
package. I found out that the gitolite user also still existed. I
removed it and reinstalled gitolite.
