Gitolite is an access control layer on top of git, which allows access control
down to the branch level, including specifying who can and cannot rewind a
given branch.
Gitolite lets you use a single user on a server to host many git repositories
and provide access to many developers, without having to give them real
userids on or shell access to the server. Authentication is most commonly done
using sshd, but you can also use httpd if you prefer.
Gitolite can restrict who can read from (clone/fetch) or write to (push) a
repository. It can also restrict who can push to what branch or tag, which is
very important in a corporate environment.
===> The following configuration options are available for gitolite2-2.3.1_1:
GITUSER=off: Create git user as gitolite provider
===> Use 'make config' to modify these settings
Final gitolite installation instructions:
Any ssh user can be a gitolite provider. Simply run the following command as
the user:
/usr/local/bin/gl-setup /path/to/admin.ssh.key.pub
This will setup up the configuration files for gitolite, designating where the
repositories are located and other options.
The admin ssh key allows full access to the gitolite-admin repository where
additional users and repositories can be configured.
By default, the git user is created for use by gitolite.
Remove WWW entries moved into port Makefiles
Commit b7f05445c00f has added WWW entries to port Makefiles based on
WWW: lines in pkg-descr files.
This commit removes the WWW: lines of moved-over URLs from these
pkg-descr files.

Add WWW entries to port Makefiles
It has been common practice to have one or more URLs at the end of the
ports' pkg-descr files, one per line and prefixed with "WWW:". These
URLs should point at a project website or other relevant resources.
Access to these URLs required processing of the pkg-descr files, and
they have often become stale over time. If more than one such URL was
present in a pkg-descr file, only the first one was tarnsfered into
the port INDEX, but for many ports only the last line did contain the
port specific URL to further information.
There have been several proposals to make a project URL available as
a macro in the ports' Makefiles, over time.

Update USE_GITHUB so it does not require GH_COMMIT.
Using this new scheme allows only setting the _tag_ or _commit hash_ in
GH_TAGNAME and not having to know the hash for a tag. This scheme will
download a tarball that has a different checksum than before due to a changed
directory name for extraction.
The following MASTER_SITES are provided to retain the old checksum and
directory structure (that require GH_COMMIT):
GH -> GHL
GITHUB -> GITHUB_LEGACY
