I've installed gitosis as described here:
http://gist.github.com/264304
One of the things that I had to adjust was to give my git user permissions to use ssh (which I did trough server admin - access - ssh and added the 'git' user).
When I ssh from my local machine (mac osx) as the git user, I get this response:
PTY allocation request failed on channel 0
bash: gitosis-serve: command not found
Connection to 10.0.0.108 closed.
Which I think is normal, because in Pro GIT the author says you should get something like this if you try ssh'ing to the server using your git user:
PTY allocation request failed on channel 0
fatal: unrecognized command 'gitosis-serve schacon@quaternion'
Connection to gitserver closed.
So far so good, I think? Now when I try to clone my gitosis-admin.git repository using this command:
$git clone
[email protected]:gitosis-admin.git
I get this:
Initialized empty Git repository in /Users/joggink/gitosis-admin/.git/
bash: gitosis-serve: command not found
fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly
So after doing some searching, I found an answer here on serverfault claiming I should use ssh:// as protocol for my git clone (which I thought is the default git protocol?)
However, when I try:
$git clone ssh://
[email protected]:gitosis-admin.git
This is the response:

When I type in my own password (because my git user has no password), I get following error:

I added my upload-pack location as followed:
$git clone -u /usr/local/git/bin/git-upload-pack ssh://
[email protected]:gitosis-admin.git
I get the error that gitosis-admin.git isn't a git repo...

I've been searching for a solution for almost a week now, and every topic I've found on the internet gives no result...
