title: installing gitolite without cloning gitolite repo
body: <p>I'm trying to install gitolite on a redhat virtual machine. 
  Now, the machine is <strong>not connected to the internet</strong>. Therefore, I can't run the 'clone' step of the standard installation.
  I do have the source code on my machine, and when I run the 'install -ln' step - it throws:</p>
  
  <pre><code>fatal: Not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Which makes sense, because it's not a git repository (I don't understand why should it be a repository anyway).</p>
  
  <p>I have also tried initializing a repo in the gitolite folder.. didn't help.</p>
  
  <p><strong>How can I workaround the clone step?</strong></p>
