Does anyone know of a simple utility to host a remote on your local machine so that a small team can take advantage of git's DVCS in the event that a service like GitHub goes down?
$ git remote add origin2 user@your-ip:/path/to/repo.git
$ mkdir repo.git
$ cd repo.git
$ git --bare initNo seriously, that is the simplest thing to use and punches right through any firewall, anywhere. Instead of git push, do this:
tar cvf project.tgz .git
mail -a project.tgz team@example.net
Subject: Pull request #9042
Please pull master branch from attached
git repository, it fixes all the things.
^D
Other than that, any file server will work. Apache, nginx, samba (just mount it), rsync, even *ftpd.
