GitPrep

Github clone. You can install portable github system into Unix/Linux.

Features

  • Github clone. GitPrep have same interface as GitHub.
  • Portable. You can install GitPrep into your Unix/Linux server.
  • Support cygwin on Windows(need gcc4 package). You can install GitPrep into Windows.
  • Only needs Perl 5.8.7+.
  • Smart HTTP support, you can pull and push via HTTP
  • CGI support, and having built-in web server, Reverse proxy support.
  • SSL support.

Installation into Shared Server

Shared Server must support Linux/Unix, Apache, SuExec, CGI, and PHP5(CGI mode).

(PHP is not necessary, if PHP exists, the install process is easy because you do not need to think about permissions.)

Many shared servers support these, so you will be able to find a suitable server easily.

Download

First you need to download gitprep.

https://github.com/yuki-kimoto/gitprep/archive/latest.zip

Expand the zip file. You will see the following directory.

gitprep-latest

Rename the gitprep-latest directory to gitprep.

gitprep-latest -> gitprep

Configuration

GitPrep needs the git command. You must install git by yourself. If you don't yet set user.name and user.email, you must set them.

git config --global user.name "gitprep"
git config --global user.email "[email protected]"

You must add the correct git command path to the gitprep.conf config file.

[basic]
;;; Git command path
git_bin=/home/yourname/local/bin/git

Upload Server by FTP

You upload these directory into server document root by FTP.

Setup

Access the following URL by browser.

http://(Your host name)/gitprep/setup/setup.php

(If you don't access PHP file or don't have PHP, you can use CGI script please set this CGI script permission to 755)

http://(Your host name)/gitprep/setup/setup.cgi.

Click Setup button once and wait about 5 minutes.

Go to application

If you see result, click "Go to Application".

Internal Server Error

If you receive an internal server error, look at the log file (gitprep/log/production.log) to see what the problem occurred.

Installation into own Unix/Linux Server

GitPrep has its own web server, so you can start using the application very easily. This is much better than the way shown above because you do not need to setup the Apache environment and performance will be much better.

(You can also install GitPrep into Cygwin. If you want to install GitPrep into Cygwin, gcc4 and make program are needed.)

Create gitprep user

Create a gitprep user. This is not necessary, but recommended.

useradd gitprep
su - gitprep
cd ~

Download

Download tar.gz archive, expand it and change directory.

curl -kL https://github.com/yuki-kimoto/gitprep/archive/latest.tar.gz > gitprep-latest.tar.gz
tar xf gitprep-latest.tar.gz
mv gitprep-latest gitprep
cd gitprep

Setup

To setup GitPrep, execute the following command. All of the needed modules will be installed.

./setup.sh

Test

Run the test to check if the setup process was successful or not.

prove t

If "All tests successful" is shown, the setup process was successful.

Configuration

Same as Shared Server's Configuration section.

Operation

Start

You can start the application by running the provided gitprep script. The application is run in the background and the port is 10020 by default.

./gitprep

Then access the following URL.

http://localhost:10020

If you want to change the port, edit gitprep.conf. If you cannot access this port, you might change the firewall settings.

Stop

You can stop the application by adding the --stop option.

./gitprep --stop

Operation from root user

You can manage the application from the root user.

Start the application

sudo -u gitprep /home/gitprep/gitprep/gitprep

Stop the application

sudo -u gitprep /home/gitprep/gitprep/gitprep --stop

If you want to start the application when the OS starts, add the start application command to rc.local(Linux).

If you want to make it easy to manage gitprep, then create a run script.

mkdir -p /webapp
echo '#!/bin/sh' > /webapp/gitprep
echo 'su - gitprep -c "/home/gitprep/gitprep/gitprep $*"' >> /webapp/gitprep
chmod 755 /webapp/gitprep

You can start and stop the application with the following command.

# Start or Restart
/webapp/gitprep

# Stop
/webapp/gitprep --stop

Developer

If you are a developer, you can start the application in development mode.

./morbo

Then access the following URL.

http://localhost:3000

If you have git, it is easy to install from git.

git clone git://github.com/yuki-kimoto/gitprep.git

It is useful to write configuration in gitprep.my.conf, not gitprep.conf.

FAQ

blame don't work

In Gitprep, blame page use "git blame --line-porcelain". In old git, there is no --line-porcelain option. We don't know when --line-porcelain was added to git. At least, blame page work well in git 1.8.2.1.

How to upgrade GitPrep

It is very easy. you only overwrite all files except for "gitprep.conf".

If you want to upgrade by "git pull", you can do it. you create "gitprep.my.conf" copied from "gitprep.my.conf", and do "git pull"

If you get a rainbow unicorn t-rex error after upgrading, you might be missing a new CPAN dependency. Rerun the /setup/setup.php on brower or rerun setup.sh on command line.

I can't push large repository by http protocol

There are some reasons.

1. Git version is old

If you see "error: RPC failed; result=56, HTTP code = 200" , your git maybe old. Please upgrade to latest git. I checked git version 1.8.5.5.

2. GitPrep restriction

GitPrep restrict max post message size 10MB(This is default of Mojolicious)

You maybe see the following error

Delta compression using up to 4 threads.
Compressing objects: 100% (17830/17830), done.
Writing objects: 100% (18281/18281), 687.05 MiB | 129.92 MiB/s, done.
Total 18281 (delta 295), reused 18281 (delta 295)
error: RPC failed; result=22, HTTP code = 413
fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly
fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly

Please increase increase the value of MOJO_MAX_MESSAGE_SIZE

# 1GB
export MOJO_MAX_MESSAGE_SIZE=1024000000

3. git restriction

git restrict post max size via http protocol. http.postBuffer value of git config is maybe small.

You maybe see the following error message.

error: RPC failed; result=56, HTTP code = 200
fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly
Counting objects: 18281, done.
Delta compression using up to 4 threads.
Compressing objects: 100% (17830/17830), done.
Writing objects: 100% (18281/18281), 687.05 MiB | 133.23 MiB/s, done.
Total 18281 (delta 295), reused 18281 (delta 295)
fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly
Everything up-to-date

Please increase the value of http.postBuffer.

# 1GB
git config http.postBuffer 1024000000

I can't create repository and see error message when I create repository with readme

If you see the following error message in log/production.log

[Wed Feb 12 15:27:02 2014] [error] ... Can't execute git commit ...

you need to set User name and Email of git. Please set user.name and user.email.

git config --global user.name "gitprep"
git config --global user.email "[email protected]"

How to use reverse proxy

You can use GitPrep via reverse proxy access

     ----------------------------     ------------
---->| Web Server(Reverse proxy)|---->|GitPrep   |
<----| (Apache, etc)            |<----|          |
     ----------------------------     ------------

I show apache config example. You can use Name virtual host.

# HTTP
<VirtualHost *:80>

  ServerName myhost.com
  <Proxy *>
    Order deny,allow
    Allow from all
  </Proxy>
  
  ProxyRequests Off
  ProxyPreserveHost On
  ProxyPass / http://localhost:10020/ keepalive=On
  ProxyPassReverse / http://localhost:10020/
  RequestHeader set X-Forwarded-HTTPS "0"
    
</VirtualHost>

If you use GitPrep vis https, you should set X-Forwarded-HTTPS Request Header.

# HTTPS
<VirtualHost *:443>

  ServerName myhost.com
  <Proxy *>
    Order deny,allow
    Allow from all
  </Proxy>
  
  ProxyRequests Off
  ProxyPreserveHost On
  ProxyPass / http://localhost:10020/ keepalive=On
  ProxyPassReverse / http://localhost:10020/
  RequestHeader set X-Forwarded-HTTPS "1"
</VirtualHost>
