+Start by downloading ​Sparkleshare and installing it on your own computer. When you are done, you should have a Sparkleshare folder on your computer that contains a file called something like Your Name's Key. That will have your public key in it.
+
+Next, login to the members control panel (​https://members.mayfirst.org/cp). Create a new User Account, e.g. nameorg-sparkle. Then (this is important), click the Server Access tab and create a new record (selecting nameorg-sparkle from the Login name drop down list). And, in the "Public Key (optional)" field, copy and paste the contents of the Your Name's Key file from your computer.
+
+That last step gives your sparkleshare installation access to this account.
+
+Next, log into the server using secure shell. Here's the faq for [​https://support.mayfirst.org/wiki/faq/user/security/secure-shell logging into the server].
+
+Once you are logged in, type the following commands:
+
+{{{
+mkdir sparkleshare
+cd sparkleshare
+git init --bare
+}}}
+
+Now, you can log out by typing:
+
+{{{
+exit
+}}}
+
+And you are almost ready!
+
+On your computer, click on the sparkleshare icon in your system tray.
+
+Select "Add hosted project..." For address type: nameorg-sparkle@yourserveraddress.mayfirst.org.
+
+For path type: sparkleshare
+
+And then you should be sharing.
