Git サーバー

この記事では、Git サーバーをホストする方法について概要を説明します。より詳細な情報は、Pro Git book の Git on the Server chapter の章を参照ください。

プロトコル

詳細な説明と長所・短所は、Git on the Server - The Protocols を参照してください。

全般

Step by Step Guide on Setting Up git Server では Arch での安全でないサーバーのセットアップを説明しています。

デフォルトでは、git ユーザは期限切れになっています("Your account has expired; please contact your system administrator")。有効期限切れの条件を解除するには、例えば、以下のように chage を使用します。

chage -E -1 git

SSH

You only need to set up an SSH server.

You are able to secure the SSH user account even more allowing only push and pull commands on this user account. This is done by replacing the default login shell by git-shell. Described in Setting Up the Server.

When securing the git server created using the instructions in #General with the instructions of this clause (#SSH), the following additional steps are needed on Arch:

correct home directory

In order for ssh to be able to read /srv/git/.ssh/authorized_keys, the home directory for git in /etc/passwd needs to be changed from "/" to "/srv/git".

correct base path when home directory is corrected

In order for git to serve the repositories, the --base-path in "/usr/lib/systemd/system/git-daemon\@.service" need to be changed to "/srv/git" if the repositories are served from git's home directory.

Smart HTTP

The git-http-backend(1) is a CGI program, allowing efficient cloning, pulling and pushing over HTTP(S).

Apache

The setup for this is rather simple as all you need to have installed is the Apache HTTP Server, with mod_cgi, mod_alias, and mod_env enabled) and of course, git.

Once you have your basic setup running, add the following to your Apache configuration file, which is usually located at:

/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf

<Directory "/usr/lib/git-core">
    Require all granted
</Directory>
 
SetEnv GIT_PROJECT_ROOT /srv/git
SetEnv GIT_HTTP_EXPORT_ALL
ScriptAlias /git/ /usr/lib/git-core/git-http-backend/

This assumes your Git repositories are located at /srv/git and that you want to access them via something like: http(s)://your_address.tld/git/your_repo.git.

ノート: Make sure that Apache can read and write to your repositories.

Git

The Git protocol is not encrypted or authenticated, and only allows read access.

The Git daemon (git-daemon(1)) can be started with git-daemon.socket.

The service uses the --export-all and --base-path parameters to serve all repositories placed in /srv/git/.

Access control

For fine-grained access control, the following solutions are available:

• Gitolite — An access control layer on top of Git, written in Perl.

• Gitosis — Software for hosting Git repositories, written in Python.

https://github.com/tv42/gitosis || gitosis-git^AUR

Note that if you are willing to create user accounts for all of the people that should have access to the repositories and do not need access control at the level of git objects (like branches), you can also use standard file permissions for access control.[1]

Web interfaces

Simple web applications

• Gitweb — the default web interface that comes with Git
• cgit — A web interface for git written in plain C.
