Originally reported on Google Code with ID 585

specified
" Linux/Unix/MacOSX machine and the user that Gitblit runs-as must have root permissions."
but root permissions does not need.
for example

# PAM configuration for the gitblit service
# Standard Un*x authentication.
@include common-auth

are enough for work bitblit with PAM without root rights.
In this example gitblit configuration for PAM must be
realm.authenticationProviders = pam
realm.pam.serviceName = gitblit
