How do you allow multiple people to push to github?

I would like to allow other members of our team to push to a github repository, as there are other people I "trust" and dont want them to have to constantly bug me to do a push.

Programmatically add files to a GitHub download page

I generate PDF documentation as part of my projects and I'd like them to stay in sync with my Git repository (it's not always possible for people to build their own since they often use proprietary fonts).

GitHub noobian, should I install msysGit or Cygwin?

I intend to use GitHub with Git Extensions and possibly integrate with FogBugz (optional).

Originally I simply downloaded the files from this repo: http://github.com/mojombo/mojombo.github.com and ...

What is the advantage of using git submodules over having a repo inside another repo with a gitignore?

We've been looking into git submodules and we are wondering what advantage (if any) is there in having a repository using submodules verses having a repository within another repository with a .gitignore file.

How do I change a Git remote HEAD to point to something besides "master"

Short version: How do I set a Git remote's HEAD ref to point to something besides "master"? My project has a policy not to use a "master" branch (all branches are to have meaningful names). Furthermore, the canonical master repository is only accessible via ssh://, with no shell access (like GitHub or Unfuddle). My problem is that the ...

Then I signed up with a second user two days ago. It is meant to be my 'official' working account. So I try to set up some repositorys from this user. It seems ...

Publishing a "git svn" repo

I'm modifying an open-source project that's stored in an SVN repo. Since my changes will likely take a while to complete, I've checked the project out as a Git repo using the git-svn bridge. I don't have access to the project's Subversion repo so I can't push changes back to it, but I'd like to publish my Git repo (on GitHub) so others c...

I want something like github, but internal for my company. Recommendations?

I need some sort of web-based source code repository slash issue-tracker. The point is to have greater visibility of our various internal projects. Any recommendations? Open source is a requirement. A ready-made virtual appliance would be nice. Internal github would be perfect, but AFAIK this costs money. Does anyone have experiences ...

Git Submodules. How do I make them entirely self-contained?

I'm a happy user of Github. Over time I have accrued a number of little unrelated toy repos. I would now like to create a container repo - call it playpen, pull my various toy projects underneath the parent playpen as git submodules, and blow away to source toy repos. The toys should only live in the playpen. When I tried this using this...

Git Subtree. Why can't I branch from a subtree rather than the root?

I am struggling trying to make sense of using the Git subtree strategy. My intent was to pull some disparate repos together into a little family of toy repos under an umbrella repo.
