Add custom ssh port support and fix a small permission problem

Created by: yin8086

First about sudo chmod -R 750 /home/git/.gitolite/. When I first install gitlab as the Guide. The check program always say post-receive exists? ............NO. And I found that User GitLab can not even see the post-receive file. So I add this option and then the problem is solved. I don't know if there is better choice to fix this. Maybe somebody else have a better idea?

Second I add the custom SSH port support. In many VPS systems, the SSH port is sometimes not 22. So I think this is very important. After create the config file, the git will work correctly.

Did you add gitlab user into git group as it is said in installation document?

sudo adduser --disabled-login --gecos 'GitLab' gitlab

# Add it to the git group
sudo usermod -a -G git gitlab

because if you do and /home/git/.gitolite/ owned by git:git

# Make sure the Gitolite config dir is owned by git
sudo chmod 750 /home/git/.gitolite/
sudo chown -R git:git /home/git/.gitolite/

then gitlab is able to see post-receive hook:

sudo -u gitlab ls -la /home/git/.gitolite/hooks/common
total 16
drwxrwxr-x 2 git git 4096 2013-01-17 10:51 .
drwxrwxr-x 4 git git 4096 2013-01-16 11:27 ..
-rwxr-xr-x 1 git git  432 2013-01-16 16:19 post-receive

Setting 750 for all files inside .gitolite is not necessary.

Oh, I do add the add gitlab user into git group. But maybe because I use a different command to creater use gitlab. adduser --shell /bin/bash --create-home --home-dir /home/gitlab gitlab

Ok, I'll close this, and only add the ssh part

My system is Centos. And the syntax of adduser is a litter different. This may be the problem.
