Hello all ,
I am new in using Git . I have a small network , all the machine in LAN . I
install Git in my windows machine (Windows XP sp2) in a central location .
Now how to connect other hosts to central windows machine with the help of
Git .

Thanks .

We have a similar situation at $dayjob.
Each developer who is ot use git installs it locally.
Each developer has their own local repo.
The shared (bare) repo is on a network drive, and that drive is mapped:

c:> net use g: \\server1\Engineering

Then individual developers can clone do something like this from bash:

$ git clone file://g:/path/to/repo/on/G

The only real hitch is that (in the largest single fustercluck
or all time) windows likes using backslash as a path separator.

But mapping the network drive to a drive letter allows you to avoid
almost all of the pain.
