CSCF Git Repository

This page is to document CSCF use of the https://git.uwaterloo.ca/ git server, which has an easy-to-use "gitorious" web front-end with associated back-end hooks. This is Daniel Allen's recommended location to put CSCF code which might be shared with the rest of campus. CSCF Infrastructure group runs a repository at https://git.cs.uwaterloo.ca/ with a "Cgit" front-end; that is a different service.

Access

Access is available to anyone with a watiam ID; upon initial CAS login, their git.uwaterloo.ca account is activated and they may be added to existing projects. The administrator for the server (as of July 2015) is Giles Malet, gdmalet.

Access to CSCF Group

https://git.uwaterloo.ca/cscf/ is a shortcut location for the CSCF group, a suitable location for CSCF-wide code. Write access to add repositories under the group may be granted by anyone with 'owner' rights in the group, which include drallen and fhgunn as well as part-time staff. Owner rights will be added for any additional CSCF staff requesting them.
