I would like to add a GIt repository for my existing MonoTouch project. My project is on Mac machine but i would like to create the main repository on a Windows machine in same network. Is that possible? I came across many docs adding Git to existing project but on the same machine. I would like to set up a Windows machine as my GIt server and commit my changes from my Mac machine.

  • is the windows filesystem (or part of it) available as a network share on the mac? please answer so that we know if we need to tell you about setting up ssh and stuff or if we can skip that. – mnagel Jul 06 '13 at 10:01

You can do that. I would recommend another private bare repo on bitbucket too. Make sure that the path to the repo on the windows machine is viewable as a share. Then just add the remote on your Mac repo with

git remote add origin file:///\\servername\sharename\subpathtogitrepo

this assumes you don't have any remotes set up yet. If you do, substitute origin with something else like winremote.

  • Do i need to clone it on my mac machine? I dont want to use bitbucket. Can you point me to a doc/tutorial explaining these things. – User382 Jul 03 '13 at 19:28
