After installation of Ubuntu 14.04 LTS, copy your local id_rsa.pub_ file to your server:
local$ scp ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub git@server:~/yourname.pub
root@server$ apt-get install git
root@server$ adduser git
root@server$ mv yourname.pub /home/git/yourname.pub
root@server$ su git
git@server$ mkdir -p ~/bin
git@server$ git clone git://github.com/sitaramc/gitolite
git@server$ gitolite/install -ln ~/bin
add ~/bin to your PATH on server
git@server$ gitolite setup -pk yourname.pub
That’s it. Now, you can clone the repo (git clone git@server:gitolite-admin) and start configuring your git host.
