SAC:Git Service

The TracsvnVM machine hosts a few git related experimental services.

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.

Access methods

HTTPS (Read/Write)

Repos in /var/www/git/repos are served via https://git.osgeo.org/git/REPONAME.

Repos in /home/git/gogs-repositories are served via 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

Repos in /home/git/gogs-repositories are NOT accessible via git protocol.

twentyafterfour from wikimieda-labs:

our phabricator accepts ldap logins plus oauth; phabricator might still be a decent way of managing your repositories. It's essentially the same thing as gitolite but with a lot more automation around account management, key management and hooks... you have to deal with account management yourself, phabricator integrates all of that into one package (which can still be somewhat automated / integrated with other tools)

gitolite

twentyafterfour from wikimieda-labs: likely doesn't support LDAP; certainly a lot lighter weight than Phab stack, if you are comfortable with perl and don't mind doing a bit of integration work

Wikimedia-devtools says:

we currently use Gerrit for code review (gerrit.wikimedia.org) and gitblit for git.wikimedia.org. Things are being migrated to phabricator.wikimedia.org though (Diffusion). You are in the right channel you can git clone all of our server configs btw. it's a puppet repo and all public. you might also be interested in wikitech.wikimedia.org, our labs environment where you can get free virtual machines to test things
