Code Manager provides Enterprise RBAC and additional code distribution features to r10k. Code Manager will automatically set r10k up for you, but using it requires that you understand how r10k calls code, and how to store your code in a Git repository.
This book is not intended to be a complete resource on Git, but to use Code Manager effectively, you should know some basics about Git.
