This tutorial will guide you through the process of installing Cgit on your Manjaro system.
Before installing Cgit, you need to install the following dependencies:
sudo pacman -S git make openssl zlib
Download the latest version of Cgit from the official website using the following command:
git clone https://git.zx2c4.com/cgit
Change the directory to the Cgit directory and run the following commands:
make
sudo make install
This will build and install Cgit on your system.
To configure Cgit, you need to create a configuration file. You can use the following command to create a default configuration file:
sudo cp /usr/local/share/cgit/cgitrc /etc/cgitrc
Once you have the configuration file, you can edit it to suit your needs. The configuration file contains several options that you can configure, such as the title, root URL, and repositories.
To enable and start the Cgit service, run the following commands:
sudo systemctl enable cgit
sudo systemctl start cgit
You can also check the status of the service by running the following command:
sudo systemctl status cgit
That's it! You have successfully installed and configured Cgit on your Manjaro system. You can now use Cgit to browse and manage your Git repositories.
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!
