Hi, 

We need some help accessing our private Git as admin. The admin is currently unavailable and we need to provide access to a new Git user.

Thanks & best regards,

I don't know what type of setup a "private git" means?  Is

We need to know what product you are running to help.  

What risks are you concerned with setting up another server?  
And what kind of server would you be setting up?
