Remote GIT Repository

DennisDDennisD Member
edited March 2015 in Help

Does somebody know a good tutorial about how to configure a GIT remote repository on Debian? I want to use this remote repository to push code changes in Microsoft Visual Studio directly to my server from where I can then compile and execute it.

Thanks! :)

    Gogs Is written in go, the end result being that you only have a single binary that you need to copy and paste and it works on BSD, Linux and Windows. Installation guide

    Otherwise there is cgit.

    Gogs looks very nice, but I kinda just need the core functionality. I don't need a UI or anything.

    git init --bare myrepo.git

    Then you can clone it using ssh

    Any tutorial or more information on that? I also need to create a repo without any branches, Microsoft Visual Studio will create that.

    Alright, so how do I make it accessible from the internet so I can push changes from MVS.

    Setup an SSH server and use ssh://[email protected]:/path/to/myproject.git as the remote origin.
    git doesnt require anything special to work that way, if you want to serve it through http(s) or use the git protocol (ssh with less overhead) you need to do more work.

    If you want it to work like github you need to create a user account called git and give it a home directory (the /path/to part) then you can use ssh://[email protected]:myproject.git

    -1 microsoft, really.

    This guide looks good Unfortunately it looks like you have to add to your apache httpd.conf file and add users to a .htpasswd file for each repo.

    Just the basic stuff (local), VS uses libgit2 - a pure C implementation of the Git. libgit2 doesn't support SSH yet (stable builds). However, since basic SSH support has been merged into libgit2 recently SSH support in VS 2015 looks promising.

    Thanks for the tutorial. I have done everything as described and all the tests have passed, but when I try to sync it with Visual Studio it get a 404 (not found) error for some reason, any idea?
