Getting Git installed in lots of places for a team can be a irksome. Part of your team is running windows, maybe with Cygwin, others with various flavours on unix and osx. Layered on top of that are the applications that we use with git services embedded in them. This should serve as a sample page to show where we can get access to the clients and how we set them up for ssh which is our default.
