Git for Debian -------------- When setting up a git.example.org server, there are several things to configure to make everything work nicely together. All this is optional. 1. Run a git-daemon. This allows people to use a git:// URL to access your repositories. This package provides the git-daemon program, to enable a git-daemon service, configure inetd(8) to launch it on demand, or install the git-daemon-run package to run it permanently: cat >> /etc/inetd.conf <<EOF git stream tcp4 nowait nobody /usr/bin/git git daemon --inetd --base-path=/var/lib /var/lib/git git stream tcp6 nowait nobody /usr/bin/git git daemon --inetd --base-path=/var/lib /var/lib/git EOF Or: apt-get install git-daemon-run Wait five seconds for the service to be picked up, and check its status and logs: sv stat git-daemon cat /var/log/git-daemon/current The git daemon by default looks into the directory /var/lib/git/ for repositories (this is configured in /etc/sv/git-daemon/run). It expects the repositories' .git subdirectories in /var/lib/git/, symlinks pointing to the corresponding subdirectories in the repositories are just fine, e.g.: ln -s ~pape/git/foo/.git /var/lib/git/foo.git Now git-clone git://git.example.org/git/repo will work. 2. Configure a web server for git. This allows people to use a http:// URL to access your repositories. Here's an example for an apache virtual server. Add a stanza to your apache configuration that looks like this: <VirtualHost *:80> ServerName git.example.org ServerAdmin webmaster@example.org HeaderName HEADER # bogus but safe DocumentRoot DocumentRoot /var/lib/git ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/git.example.org-error.log CustomLog /var/log/apache2/git.example.org-access.log combined Alias /robots.txt /var/www/cvs.robots.txt Alias /static /usr/share/gitweb/static Alias /git /var/lib/git ScriptAlias / /usr/share/gitweb/gitweb.cgi RedirectMatch permanent "^/~(.*)$" "http://example.org/~$1" </VirtualHost> Now git clone http://git.example.org/git/repo will work. And if you installed the gitweb package, http://git.example.org/ now will display a list of repositories, making them accessible through a web browser. -- Gerrit Pape <pape@smarden.org> Fri, 15 Sep 2006 09:19:37 +0000
