A shell script to change permissions of the gitolite repositories to make them readable by GitPHP

gitolite-repo-permissions.sh

#!/bin/sh

GITOLITE_REPO_PATH="/home/gitolite/repositories"
GITOLITE_ADMIN_PATH="$GITOLITE_REPO_PATH/gitolite-admin.git"

debug ()
{
		echo "[D]: $1" > /dev/null
}

for dir in `find $GITOLITE_REPO_PATH -type -d`; do
	if [ "$dir" != "GITOLITE_ADMIN_PATH" ]; then
		`chmod -R 0755 $dir`
	fi
	debug "Permissions changed for all repositories."
done

I am trying to find a solution for this problem too and I stumbled across your script here. I seem to have encountered some issues with it, so I made a few tweaks and thought I would share.

#!/bin/sh

GITOLITE_REPO_PATH="/home/gitolite/repositories/"
GITOLITE_ADMIN_REPO="gitolite-admin.git"

debug ()
{
        echo "[D]: $1"
}

for dir in `find $GITOLITE_REPO_PATH -mindepth 1 -maxdepth 1  \( ! -name $GITOLITE_ADMIN_REPO \)`; do
        `chmod -R 0755 $dir`
        debug "Permissions changed for $dir"
done
