--disabled-password \
--home /home/git \

sudo adduser --disabled-login --gecos 'GitLab' git
Create a user for GitLab:

sudo adduser --disabled-login --gecos 'GitLab' gitlab
# Add it to the git group
sudo usermod -a -G git gitlab
# Generate the SSH key
sudo -u gitlab -H ssh-keygen -q -N '' -t rsa -f /home/gitlab/.ssh/id_rsa
# 4. Gitolite
Clone GitLab's fork of the Gitolite source code:
# login as git
sudo su git
# go to home directory
cd /home/git
sudo -u git -H git clone -b gl-v320 https://github.com/gitlabhq/gitolite.git /home/git/gitolite
Setup Gitolite with GitLab as its admin:
**Important Note:**
GitLab assumes *full and unshared* control over this Gitolite installation.
# Add Gitolite scripts to $PATH
sudo -u git -H mkdir /home/git/bin
sudo -u git -H sh -c 'printf "%b\n%b\n" "PATH=\$PATH:/home/git/bin" "export PATH" >> /home/git/.profile'

# Copy the gitlab user's (public) SSH key ...
sudo cp /home/gitlab/.ssh/id_rsa.pub /home/git/gitlab.pub
sudo chmod 0444 /home/git/gitlab.pub

Fix the directory permissions for the configuration directory:
# Make sure the Gitolite config dir is owned by git
sudo chmod 750 /home/git/.gitolite/

Fix the directory permissions for the repositories:

## Add domains to list to the list of known hosts
sudo -u gitlab -H ssh git@localhost
sudo -u gitlab -H ssh git@YOUR_DOMAIN_NAME
sudo -u gitlab -H ssh git@YOUR_GITOLITE_DOMAIN_NAME
## Test if everything works so far
# Clone the admin repo so SSH adds localhost to known_hosts ...
# ... and to be sure your users have access to Gitolite
sudo -u gitlab -H git clone git@localhost:gitolite-admin.git /tmp/gitolite-admin
# If it succeeded without errors you can remove the cloned repo
sudo rm -rf /tmp/gitolite-admin
**Important Note:**
If you can't clone the `gitolite-admin` repository: **DO NOT PROCEED WITH INSTALLATION**!
