title: Installing Git on a Linux VM (RHEL)
body: <p>We need to set up a Git server in our team.</p>
  
  <p>I have decided to first go with a VM, and expand in the future if needed.</p>
  
  <p>I've gathered Linux would be the easiest setup.</p>
  
  <p>Problem is, i have very limited experience with Linux, some questions that i'm trying to answer are:</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li><p>What is the actual procedure for installing the Git package? is it a simple matter of RPM installation ?</p></li>
  <li><p>Following the installation, i'd need to map the Git repo to some net share. how is this done? i believe that i need to configure xinetd.d, looking for exact steps.</p></li>
  <li><p>How is authentication is set up for various users to access this machine?</p></li>
  <li><p>Which version of Linux makes any difference? we have the RHEL 5 64 bit here.</p></li>
  <li><p>Anything else i'm currently missing? </p></li>
  </ol>
