 "page_title": "How to run a local Git server and push a repo to it with Enroute",
 "summary": "Start a single Enroute node on your machine and push a repository to it in minutes.",
 "who": "A developer who wants a private Git server for testing or prototyping, with no external database to set up.",
 "problem": "Setting up a Git server with access control and storage usually takes a lot of configuration before the first push works.",
 "outcome": "A running local Enroute node that holds a repository created by your first push.",
 "steps": [
  "Run `curl -fsSL https://enroute.sh/install | sh` to install Enroute.",
  "Run `enroute dev` in one terminal and leave it running.",
  "In another terminal, from your project folder, run `git push http://127.0.0.1:8080/hello.git main`.",
  "Run `enroute repo list` to confirm the repository was created."
 ],
 "agent_prompt": "Using the enroute-sh/enroute README, install enroute, start `enroute dev`, and push the <project-dir> main branch to http://127.0.0.1:8080/<repo-name>.git. Report the output of `enroute repo list`. Verify that <repo-name> appears in that list.",
 "agents": [

 "difficulty": "Intermediate",
 "time": "15 minutes",
 "basis": "readme",
 "caveat": "Enroute is early and has no backwards compatibility between 0.x releases, so a storage format change may require a clean slate and a re-push.",
