[TPG] has set up a "GitLab" instance on a VM, running at https://gitlab.ucc.asn.au/
GitLab is a git repository manager, similar to GitHub, and looks to be a good replacement for gitosis+gitweb.
Setup
It's a VM on medico, with a small HDD; a separate partition is available for /var to avoid filling the disk with logs.
GitLab itself was installed from a .deb acquired from the GitLab website, which installs to /opt/gitlab.
It's now kept up to date using the GitLab package server.
GitLab has been configured (using the config file in /etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb) to store repositories in /services/gitlab. This is a mount of services:/services/gitlab (the VM is only allowed access to this subdir, safety first.)
Management
To start/restart/stop the GitLab service, use the gitlab-ctl tool.
gitlab-ctl start - Start the services
gitlab-ctl stop - Stop the services
gitlab-ctl reconfigure - Apply any changes from /etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb
