 * Hi,
 * If the PHP exec() function is enabled on the server, and Git is installed correctly
   on the server, then you may not need SSH access. Generally Revisr will work out
   of the box on most shared hosts with cPanel, but some hosts have different configurations
   such as limiting exec(), or may be on an outdated version of cPanel.
 * Revisr also supports HTTPS for pushes and pulls, so you could use the HTTPS method
   mentioned here: [https://revisr.io/documentation/](https://revisr.io/documentation/)
   for pushing to BitBucket/Github or receiving pulls, assuming the above requirements
   are met.
 * Let me know if you have any questions, thanks!

 * so my shered host must have git installed. so if there isn’t i can’t use revisr.
   Correct?

 * Yes, that’s correct. Ultimately in a future release, Revisr wouldn’t have any
   dependencies, but as of right now you do need Git installed for Revisr to work.
