The ssh access is intended, that's why it had a home-directory. For now
I will apply what you suggested, but this is a use case I have myself
and why would I use gitolite when git+ssh do the job well enough.

How? This thread is taking so much time because this is one of my 3
first services and I'm trying to learn more guile. I'll look at other
services like before, but I asked for help because I'm stuck. I think
openssh-service had this.. But what I have worked before I added all
other options, and for now I want it this way.. Just debug this without
changing it any further.
But if this would not require much changes which can not break things
further, I'll apply it.
