SAC:Git Service

The TracsvnVM machine hosts a few git related experimental services. This page describes where GIT repositories are and how they can be accessed.

Repositories

There are currently git repositories under /var/www/git/repos (served by Apache) and under /home/git/gogs-repositories (served by Gogs).

Apache runs as user www-data and thus user www-data owns the files in /var/www/git/repos.

Gogs runs as user git and thus user git owns the files in /home/git/gogs-repositories.

There are also a bunch of git repositories used for various system configurations, but they are not exposed to public services as such.

Some of the repositories from /var/www/git/repos are being transformed to symlinks to repos under /var/www/git/repos. These repositories will only be writable by the ``git`` user, but are made readable also by the rest of the world.

Access methods

HTTPS (Read/Write)

Repo	URL
/var/www/git/repos	https://git.osgeo.org/git/REPONAME
/home/git/gogs-repositories	https://git.osgeo.org/_gogs_/REPONAME

In both cases, LDAP authentication is allowed. For the /git/REPONAME LDAP authentication is _required_, and you need to use the Git protocol access for an anonymous checkout.

In both cases, http access redirects to https.

GIT protocol (Read Only)

Repos in /var/www/git/repos are served via git protocol with git://git.osgeo.org/git/REPONAME as long as they contain a file named git-daemon-export-ok

Repos in /home/git/gogs-repositories are NOT accessible via git protocol, unless made available via symlinks from /var/www/git/repos (as done for the GEOS repository, for example)

The handling server is SAC:GitDaemon
