Gitolite: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 01:24, 20 April 2012

The installation of gitolite is relatively easy on alpine Linux. Bellow is the method to install gitolite on a user account.

Log into root user
apk add perl bash git nano
adduser -s /bin/bash -S git
su - git
On your local machine make a ssh key
ssh-keygen -t myname.pub
Next run
scp ~/.ssh/myname.pub git@example.com:myname.pub
on your local machine
On the remote machine type
git clone git://github.com/sitaramc/gitolite
gitolite/src/gl-system-install
you will receive an error message, to fix add the path it gives you in a new file called .bash_profile.
nano /home/git/.bash_profile
add the line and save Ctrl+X
logout and then back into the git user
gl-setup myname.pub
on your local machine you can now
git clone git@example.com:gitolite-admin
on your local machine you can now edit your config files then commit them and push them back to the server

Im a brand new alpine user and was able to get it working using the above instructions, hope this will help someone else!
