Anyone collobarate on the same server with multiple devlopers?

I have this restricted server where I cannot run a daemon or a simple http server. So, We will have work on the same repo.

Is there any established workflow for this? I'm a git beginner.

I'm not sure I understand what you mean.

Do you mean there are multiple developers working in the same local repository on a server you SSH into?

Or do you mean multiple devs working in the same codebase?

Git can work fine with a simple SSH or file location/share remote.

Even (especially) if everyone is on the same machine you would want each developer to have their own clone of the repository and push/pull between each other and/or a central clone to exchange commits.

We have an application code (The other devs should be able to pull and push changes to it. I'm looking for an optimal workflow that'll save us some headaches later.
