I use [gitolite](http://gitolite.com) to manage git repositories, that are available over the internet using SSH and private keys.

I want to provide read-only access to some of those repositories from my LAN. I know that there are some pitfalls when using git over http, and I want to avoid the complex git-over-http setup just for read-only access.

As the repositories are bare ones, and I only want to read: Will it work flawlessly, if I just setup any regular web server to server the git repositories over http? Are there any drawbacks?
