11.7.2015: Version 2.0.0
Change server from Apache2 to Lighttpd
This is a quite simple Git-server for small workgroups. It is based on debian:latest and serves git repositories over http without encryption and without authentication for reading and simple password based authentication for writing.
I recommend to ise it on a local net or over VPN only. (Or modify it to your needs)
Start: sudo docker run -d -p 8080:80 -v /path/to/git/repos:/opt/git quay.io/alaska/git/
This will serve the git repositories at the host's /path/to/git/repos
git clone http://<dockeraddress>:8080/git/<repository>
git push
The server will ask for credentials. At startup, there ist access with username 'git' and password 'git'.
A simple web interface to view repositories. Navigate your browser to http://<dockeraddress>:8080
Run the container like this:
docker run -it -p 8080:80 -v /path/to/git/repos:/opt/git bash
This way, you'll end up in a bash shell inside the container.
-
remove users by removing the respective lines in /etc/lighttpd/.password
-
add new user credentials like this:
/usr/sbin/addgituser.pl >>/etc/lighttpd/.passwd
--------- Version 1.0.4 -------
a docker image with a simple git server
This is a quite simple Git-server for small workgroups. It is based on debian:latest and serves git repositories over http without encryption and without authentication. Use it on a local net or over VPN. (Or modify it to your needs)
Start: sudo docker run -t -i -p 8080:80 quay.io/alaska/git bash
cd /opt/git
git clone --bare <existing repo>
service apache2 start
Use it from remote with git:
git clone http://<address>:8080/git/<repository>
or via the gitweb interface
http://<address>:8080
By default, it will serve the internal directory /opt/git, but you can easily have an existing repotisory root served;
sudo docker run -t -i -p 8080:80 -v /srv/git:/opt/git quay.io/alaska/git bash
This will serve your existing repositories at /srv/git via http on port 8080.
Running the server detached
sudo docker run -d -p 8080:80 -v /srv/git:/opt/git quay.io/alaska/git /usr/sbin/apachectl -D FOREGROUND
This will run the git server container in the background. find it with sudo docker ps and stop it with sudo docker stop <id>
