Hi All,

As of today, we have abandoned used of Gitosis for managing Charm's git repositories. The Git repository is now hosted via Gerrit (Web interface - http://charm.cs.uiuc.edu/gerrit/).

Anonymous checkouts can now to be done using : 

git clone ssh:// charm.cs.uiuc.edu:9418/charm

Anybody who requires non-anon access to the repositories will need to register on the given website (http://charm.cs.uiuc.edu/gerrit/login/register/q/status:open,n,z). 

1. Using your google account, makes this very easy (or you can use
another openid provider).
2. Make sure you select a "username" during registration and click
"Select username".
3. Paste your public SSH key into the box, and click "Add".

Please send an email to sysadmin-ppl AT cs.illinois.edu to get added to an appropriate group. 

Reconfiguring charmgit:

Your "~/.ssh/config" file must be reconfigured to use your "username"
AND the port must be added:

----
Host charmgit
Hostname charm.cs.illinois.edu
User <username>
Port 9418
IdentityFile <path/to/key>
----

Existing repositories cloned using charmgit will continue to work without any changes if the ssh config is updated. 

Repositories clone using absolute path will need to be cloned from scratch (there is a way to avoid it by resetting the origin in your local copy; please contact  sysadmin-ppl AT cs.illinois.edu if you wish to do so).

Finally, access to some repositories that were open earlier (such as  openatom) is still restricted, and are being restored.
