Description Glyn Normington CLA 2011-11-04 06:37:54 EDT 
Please could you grant me a full shell on git.eclipse.org as I need that to cd to /gitroot/virgo in order to add a git repository. As I may need to do this from time to time, is it possible to make the grant permanent?

I can't easily do this from my phone, but you can use this command even with the restricted shell:

initrepo /gitroot/virgo/org.eclipse.reponame.git

Bingo - that worked! Thanks Denis.
