Summary

In this chapter, we have seen an introduction to how Gitolite can be customized or new features can be added that are specific to your site. This is a fairly complex topic, but if you get your hands dirty and start writing programs, you will soon get very comfortable with the idea, as well as get a very good feel for how powerful the feature actually is.

The next chapter will focus on VREF, a powerful feature for even more fine-grained access control, as well as access control based on factors other than what Gitolite normally uses.
