| NAME |
| ---- |
| git-shell - Restricted login shell for GIT over SSH only |
| |
| |
| SYNOPSIS |
| -------- |
| 'git-shell -c <command> <argument>' |
| |
| DESCRIPTION |
| ----------- |
| This is meant to be used as a login shell for SSH accounts you want |
| to restrict to GIT pull/push access only. It permits execution only |
| of server-side GIT commands implementing the pull/push functionality. |
| The commands can be executed only by the '-c' option; the shell is not |
| interactive. |
| |
| Currently, only the `git-receive-pack` and `git-upload-pack` commands |
| are permitted to be called, with a single required argument. |
