SCM Manager is an open-source web-based application that allows you to manage your Git, Mercurial, and Subversion repositories through a web interface. In this tutorial, we will learn how to install SCM Manager on Alpine Linux Latest.
Before we proceed with the installation process, make sure that you have the following:
To ensure that your system is up to date with the latest security patches, run the following commands:
sudo apk update
sudo apk upgrade
SCM Manager requires Java to be installed on your system. We will install OpenJDK 8 using the following command:
sudo apk add openjdk8
We will download the latest version of SCM Manager from the official website using the following command:
sudo wget https://packages.scm-manager.org/repository/releases/sonia/scm/scm-server/2.24.2/scm-server-2.24.2-app.tar.gz
Once the download is complete, extract the tar file using the following command:
sudo tar -xvzf scm-server-2.24.2-app.tar.gz
We will now configure SCM Manager by running the following command:
sudo ./scm-server/bin/scm-server start
This will start the SCM Manager installation process, and it will create the necessary configuration files.
Once the installation process is complete, you can access SCM Manager by opening a web browser and going to:
http://<YOUR-SERVER-IP>:8080/scm
Replace <YOUR-SERVER-IP> with your server's IP address.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed SCM Manager on Alpine Linux Latest. You can now use SCM Manager to manage your Git, Mercurial, and Subversion repositories through a web interface.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
