A new top-level group can be requested via the git.nrw contact form.

Please provide the following information:

  • A minimum of 2 named owners for the top-level group. The names and email addresses of these persons are required; they must already have an account in git.nrw.
  • The desired name of the top-level group: Please use the name of your university as a prefix, e.g. RWTH-, UDE-, etc.
    Special cases for e.g. special research areas (SFB) or other interdisciplinary projects are possible on request.

During the pilot phase of the git.nrw project, the creation of top-level groups is restricted to git.nrw administrators. The further administration of groups or projects below top-level groups is the responsibility of the two registered owners of the top-level group.

If a top-level group already exists for your institution, check within your institution and contact the group owners to request a sub-level group.
