Configure Git Server on CentOS 7
Server
$ yum install git-core
$ sudo useradd git
$ sudo passwd git
Client (Local Machine)
$ ssh-keygen -t rsa
$ cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub | ssh git@remote-server "mkdir -p ~/.ssh && cat >> ~/.ssh/authorized_keys"
Server
$ sudo su git
$ mkdir -p /home/git/project-1.git
$ cd /home/git/project-1.git
$ git init --bare
Initialized empty Git repository in /home/git/project-1.git
Client (Local Machine)
$ mkdir -p /home/user/dev/project
$ cd /home/user/dev/project
$ git init
Initialized empty Git repository in /home/user/dev/project
$ git add . // Normal work with git
$ git commit -m "blah blah"
$ git remote add origin git@remote-server:project-1.git
$ git push origin master
if git server asks for password then review /var/log/secure in server
Server
$ tail -f /var/log/secure
and search for
Authentication refused: bad ownership or modes for directory /home/git/.ssh
or
Authentication refused: bad ownership or modes for file /home/git/.ssh/authorized_keys
To solve this problem we need to change mode and permission of .ssh folder and authorized_keys file
Server
$ sudo su git
$ chmod 600 /home/git/.ssh
$ chmod 700 /home/git/.ssh/authorized_keys
$ systemctl restart sshd.service // restart ssh service
and push again
Client
$ git push origin master
