I think this is the wrong answer, too. Git is for developers, and as far as I understood Richard, the web server has to have write access to parts of the doc tree, on behalf of the users "out there" [1], and Richard wants a bit more of control over that. Barring some web site software using git as their backend, git seems the wrong "solution" for that. Cheers [1] PHP, sigh. -- t
