Hi Ben,

sounds like it might be a permissions/ownership issue. The first thing
you can check:

- Which user/group owns the repo base path (specified in
config/gitorious.yml, specifies the dir under which all repositories are
stored). Should be owned by the 'gitorious_user' specified in
/config/gitorious.yml
- Now, which user is running the gitorious scripts (git-daemon etc)?
Should be the same user as below.

(My hunch is that the repo base folder is owner by root or some other
user than the one owning/running the gitorious processes)

cheers,
Thomas
