title: Having the git local on a remote server?
body: <p>I am using a remote server (which I access via ssh) to use the Matlab files and the big data files stored there. The Matlab files are used by other (selected) users, whereby the access is regulated to avoid overlapping work. </p>
  
  <p>Now I want to use the company's git system to follow the changes of the .m-files. So I changed the directory to the remote directory, initiated git, and added files, committed and pushed everything to the remote gitlab repo.</p>
  
  <p>The question is: How reasonable is it to have a local git repo on a remote server whose directories can be accessed by others? Can others use git from the same directory?</p>
