Microgit is a version control system that provides a simple and easy to use interface for managing code revisions. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the installation process of Microgit on Ubuntu Server Latest.
First, login to your Ubuntu server using root access.
Clone the Microgit repository by running the following command:
git clone https://github.com/microgit-com/microgit.git
Navigate to the Microgit directory by running the following command:
cd microgit
Install the required npm packages by running the following command:

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!
