Subject: how to restrict git to specific non-root superuser
Date: Fri, 04 May 2012 20:48:20 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <jo20t5$e8n$1@dough.gmane.org> (raw)
I work on systems where 'everyone' has the root password (that problem
is somewhat out of my hands). Is there a technique to setup git so that
only a certain non-root superuser (ie, gittech) is allowed to run git
commands? I don't want people logged in as root to mess up the git repos.
I'm considering using git for deployment and some anonymous root user
messing it up would be a very, very, bad thing. Maybe this proposition
is theoretically impossible. Maybe someone has implemented this concept
in practice.
v/r,
neal
