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)
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 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
