Gitlist is a web-based git repository browser that allows you to visualize your repositories in a clear and organized way. It is a great tool for teams that are working with git repositories and need a fast way to see what’s going on in their projects.
In this tutorial, we will guide you through the steps to install Gitlist on Clear Linux Latest.
Before we can install Gitlist, we need to install some dependencies. Open your terminal and type the following command:
sudo swupd bundle-add devpkg-libzip web-server-basic
This command will install the required dependencies for Gitlist.
We will download the latest version of Gitlist from its official website using the following command:
git clone https://github.com/gitlist/gitlist.git
This command will download the Gitlist repository to your current directory.
Now that we have downloaded Gitlist, we need to install it. Navigate to the Gitlist directory by typing the following command:
cd gitlist
Next, we will install Gitlist by running the following command:
sudo make install
This command will install Gitlist and its dependencies.
Once Gitlist is installed, we need to configure it. Copy the default configuration file by running the following command:
cp config.ini-example config.ini
Open the configuration file using your preferred text editor:
nano config.ini
Update the following settings:
Save and close the file by pressing Ctrl+X, followed by Y and Enter.
Gitlist requires a web server to function. Clear Linux Latest comes with Apache installed by default, which we will use for this tutorial.
Start the Apache web server by running the following command:
sudo systemctl start httpd
Verify that the web server is running by typing http://localhost in your web browser. You should see the Apache welcome page.
We are now ready to test Gitlist. Visit http://localhost/gitlist in your web browser. If everything is working correctly, you should see a list of repositories.
