# gitolite install transcript
|
|
|
|
This is a *complete* transcript of a full gitolite install, *from scratch*,
|
|
using brand new userids ("sita" on the client, "git" on the server). Please
|
|
note that you can use existing userids also, it is not necessary to use
|
|
dedicated user IDs for this. Also, you don't have to use some *other* server
|
|
for all this, both server and client can be "localhost" if you like.
|
|
|
|
Please note that this entire transcript can be summarised as:
|
|
|
|
* create users on client and server (optional)
|
|
* get pubkey access to server from client (`ssh-copy-id` or manual eqvt)
|
|
* run one command ***on client*** (`gl-easy-install`)
|
|
|
|
...and only that last step is actually gitolite. In fact, the bulk of the
|
|
transcript is **non**-gitolite stuff :)
|

|
### create userids on server and client (optional)
|
|
|
|
Client side: add user, give him a password
|
|
|
|
sita-lt:~ # useradd sita
|
|
|
|
sita-lt:~ # passwd sita
|
|
Changing password for user sita.
|
|
New UNIX password:
|
|
Retype new UNIX password:
|
|
passwd: all authentication tokens updated successfully.
|
|
|
|
Server side: (log on to server, then) add user, give it a password
|
|
|
|
sita-lt:~ # ssh sitaram@server
|
|
sitaram@server's password:
|
|
Last login: Fri Dec 18 20:25:06 2009
|
|
-bash-3.2$ su -
|
|
Password:
|
|
|
|
sita-sv:~ # useradd git
|
|
|
|
sita-sv:~ # passwd git
|
|
Changing password for user git.
|
|
New UNIX password:
|
|
Retype new UNIX password:
|
|
passwd: all authentication tokens updated successfully.
|
|
|
|
Server side: allow ssh access to "git" user
|
|
|
|
This is done by editing the sshd config file and adding "git" to the
|
|
"AllowUsers" list (the grep command is just confirming the change we made,
|
|
because I'm not showing the actual "vi" session):
|
|
|
|
sita-sv:~ # vim /etc/ssh/sshd_config
|
|
|
|
sita-sv:~ # grep -i allowusers /etc/ssh/sshd_config
|
|
AllowUsers sitaram git
|
|
|
|
sita-sv:~ # service sshd restart
|
|
Stopping sshd: [ OK ]
|
|
Starting sshd: [ OK ]
|

### get pubkey access from client to server
|
|
|
|
This involves creating a keypair for yourself (using `ssh-keygen`), and
|
|
copying the public part of that keypair to the `~/.ssh/authorized_keys` file
|
|
on the server (using `ssh-copy-id`, if you're on Linux, or the manual method
|
|
described in the `ssh-copy-id` section in `doc/3-faq-tips-etc.mkd`).
|
|
|
|
sita-lt:~ $ su - sita
|
|
Password:
|
|
|
|
sita@sita-lt:~ $ ssh-keygen
|
|
Generating public/private rsa key pair.
|
|
Enter file in which to save the key (/home/sita/.ssh/id_rsa):
|
|
Created directory '/home/sita/.ssh'.
|
|
Enter passphrase (empty for no passphrase):
|
|
Enter same passphrase again:
|
|
Your identification has been saved in /home/sita/.ssh/id_rsa.
|
|
Your public key has been saved in /home/sita/.ssh/id_rsa.pub.
|
|
The key fingerprint is:
|
|

sita@sita-lt:~ $ ssh-copy-id -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa git@server

git@server's password:

|
/usr/bin/xauth: creating new authority file /home/git/.Xauthority
|
|
Now try logging into the machine, with "ssh 'git@server'", and check in:
|
|
|
|
.ssh/authorized_keys
|
|
|
|
to make sure we haven't added extra keys that you weren't expecting.
|
|
|
|
Double check to make sure you can log on to `git@server` without a password:
|
|
|
|
sita@sita-lt:~ $ ssh git@server pwd
|
|
/home/git
|

### get gitolite source
|

|
|

### install gitolite
|
|
|
|
Note that gitolite is installed from the *client*. The `easy-install` script
|
|
runs on the client but installs gitolite on the server!
|
|
|
|
sita@sita-lt:~ $ cd gitolite-source/src
|
|
|
|
<font color="red"> **This is the only gitolite specific command in a typical
|
|
install sequence**. </font> Run it without any arguments to see a usage
|
|
message. Run it without the `-q` to get a more verbose, pause-at-every-step,
|
|
install mode that allows you to change the defaults etc.
|
|
|
|
|
|
sita@sita-lt:src $ ./gl-easy-install -q git server sitaram

If this is your first time installing gitolite, please also:

tail -31 ./gl-easy-install

### examine what you have

And that's really all. Add keys to keydir here, edit conf/gitolite.conf as
|
|
needed, then add, commit, and push the changes to the server. Try out that
|
|
`tail -31 ./gl-easy-install` too :)
