    the repo and add the following section.

 4. For SSH clients that will make commits, make sure their .bashrc file
    sets the GIT_AUTHOR and GIT_COMMITTER variables.
 
 5. Clients should now be able to check out the project. Use the CVS 'module'
    name to indicate what GIT 'head' you want to check out. Example:
