#Gitolite on docker

There are two methods to run this image.

1. Use docker run directly. Example:

    $ docker run -d -p 2222:22 --name gitolite -e SSH_KEY="$(cat  ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub)"  -v /path/to/git/data:/home/git/repositories  betacz/gitolite
   

2. Use the gitolite script from the GitHub Project.

   This script contains the following variables. You can change them by modifying this file or by use the environment variable to override.

    IMAGE_NAME			default: "betacz/gitolite"
    CONTAINER_NAME  	default: "gitolite-server"
    PORT                default: "2222"
    GIT_DATA_PATH       default: "/opt/git"
    SSH_KEY_FILE        default: "$HOME/.ssh/id_rsa.pub"
   

   Example:

    # run the container
    $ GIT_DATA_PATH=/var/data/git ./gitolite start
    # stop && remove the container
    $ ./gitolite stop && ./gitolite remove
   

   The user running the script must be a member of the group docker. Otherwise, you need to modify this script and prepend sudo to the appropriate command.

Attention:

• If you don't use your own ssh key, you can get the built-in private key by docker logs gitolite for admin user.

• You should create a directory for persistent Git repositories. This directory must have read/write permissions for current user.

• The Git repositories directory you specify can also be a already exists gitolite repositories.

You can customize the gitolite .rc file by modify the /path/to/git/data/gitolite.rc. This file will sync to ~/.gitolite.rc when restart the container. So after change it you must run command like this:

   $ ./gitolite stop && ./gitolite start

If the container accidentally removed by docker rm or ./gitolite remove . You can start it with the command as same as before. But you must force push the gitolite-admin again.

Example:

   $ GIT_DATA_PATH=/var/data/git ./gitolite start
   $ cd ~/gitolite-admin && git push -f

Clone the source code and run:

   $ docker build -t gitolite .
