ssh allow user git

Maybe you want to add a comment, that one has to AllowUsers git in sshd config if one has permitted ssh only for some users. Otherwise you cant commit using ssh.

(It took some time, that I found the problem, so maybe other users can fix it faster ;) )

i don't see why this should be the case. if someone modified their sshd_config, there are many ways Gitlab (and anything that uses SSH, actually) can fail, and this is just one of them. Should it also say that SSH key authentication should be enabled? I mean if you're going to shoot yourself in the foot....

ok ;)

Maybe it might also help, if one can read this issue ;)
