Got a repo with sensitive data you don't want to push to a remote server you don't control? Have a NAS setup on our home network?
|
|
Here is how to setup a folder on that NAS to act as a git remote.
|
|
|
|
**Step 1:*
|
|
|
|
Change directorys to the NAS and clone the local folder with the _--bare_ option.
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
$ cd /Volumes/travis/git
|
|
$ git clone --bare ~/.password-store
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This creates **/Volumes/travis/git/.password-store** but without a working directory. Basically its just the **/.git** part of the repo.
|
|
|
|
**Step 2:**
|
|
|
|
Setup the NAS file path to be a git remote on the repo.
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
$ cd ~/.password-store
|
|
$ git remote add nas /Volumes/travis/git/travisshears.com.git
|
|
...
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Step 3:**
|
|
|
|
Done. Now jus push.
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
$ git push nas
