Setting up *Your Own* Git Server
VloĆŸit
- Äas pĆidĂĄn 7. 09. 2024
- If you want to keep your projects on your own server or website, without using Github or Gitlab or a similar site, it's actually extremely easily. In this video, I set up a git server on my website at git.lukesmith.xyz. It is easy and doesn't really cause any bandwidth strain or other issues. Later, I'll be adding on a GUI html interface called stagit.

Setting a server? Just like for minecraft
Itâs like heâs playing minecraft but in real life!

but i do have a small gripe about it .
wish i could swap the mouse buttons.
Hi @kednog, can you please help me to find the second part of this tutorial where we can add GUI to see all our PR and comment stuffs, please
But what's the wecommended amount of deditaded WAM for a server?

> using the newbie interactive perl script "adduser" instead of the standard unix binary "useradd"
absolutely disgusting
Luke is part of Bloated Software Master Race. Disgusting!
Isn't it the other way around?
âuseraddâ is actually the native binary, and âadduserâ is the Perl wrapper. Thereâs no reason not to use âadduserâ, the functionality is the exact same between the two, and âadduserâ tends to be easier to use. Less mental bloat.
Heresy, I say!
Disgusting, absolutely
only master branches? Didn't you hear, they are called main branches now.
I don't understand why GitHub is changing the "main" branch from master to main to avoid slavery. WTF? If you follow that logic, it technically makes you racist. So "master copy" is now racist too? This is solution looking for problems.
@@richardlighthouse5328 leftism is all about illogical, surface level wokeness. Skin colour emojis are the best example of this. If they really wanted to embrace "content of your character" then we would all be using generic yellow emojis, but now you are constantly reminded of people's race whenever they use these things. Tools like slack that store your preference of skin colour emoji are literally asking you to specify your race and then storing it in a giant database lmao.
hmmm so this is real ? got the feeling this is a trap, if you say it's unnecessary you become a hardcore racist and get blocked by "good people" from twitter and so on, can't argue with this people :(
This really does not seem useful, how can anyone be offended by the "master" branch wth.
So let's go now, delete the white house, the master diploma, the mastercard, the game mastermind and so on, I think this terms are racists !
@MÎX not for long
Haha, like those ppl who make an argument 'blacklist' should be called 'denylist' because 'blacklist' is racist without them realizing they are racist for making this connection to begin with.
>Is logged in as root
>uses sudo
old habit when using Linux as your desktop. it happens to me a lot on servers (and this is my job)
when you need that extra firmness
Extra super!
I'm loving "Setting your own servers" series. We need more videos Luke!
Hai @keyboard Warrior, may i know the second part did you find? can you please help
Hi keyboard warrior can you please help me to find out the second part of this tutorial where we can see everything in gui ?
watching you instead of preparing for exam
Setting a bad example for the zoomers smh
mmm mmm angielski jutro
Superb video, I followed along and had my very own dotfiles backed up to my private server in no time.

Show us how to setup a Minecraft server.
Here is a good guide. Used it myself. wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Minecraft#Server
try opensource alternative - minetest. There are plenty mods for it as gregtech, ic2 etc (similar/same mods as for minecraft).
java -jar server.jar
Luke use this CoC:
1. Write good code;
2. Don't sue me for any reason.
Luke moving to the woods so his slower internet will extend out his videos for more ad revenue
If you want something a tad simpler, after you create the git user, you should be able to
exit back to your local machine
ssh-copy-id git@server
enter password
That should create your .ssh directory and authorized_keys file with your key and all the proper permissions.
Imagine being a Gitcel.
True chads write their own version control system with no dependencies.

Luke: "MY INTERNET IS EXTREMELY SLOW"
With such painfully slow internet it might be worth setting up mosh so when you ssh into your server it doesn't feel slow and unresponsive.
Another recommendation: gitea
This. I have one for myself and set up one for the company, takes like 5 minutes to get everything up and running and works great. Also private repos before Github decided they should make it free as well.
Emiel Kollof
That dude uses suckless tools, you think he is going to install bloat like gitea and use a browser like a normie?:D But seriously though for small repositories like dotfiles or other config files which are mostly meant to be shared with other users and not involving a lot of collaborative development, gitea/gogs/gitlab etc, are not necessary and a simple ssh/http based server is enough.
@-- yep, that's why you set up your own gitea instead
When are you going to do the "Create meme thumbnails without Photoshop" video
he's already has with gimp and imagemagick :)
czcams.com/video/5m8Oaz8XWVI/video.html
WoW this is incredibly simple and easy, and you did great guiding that!
Luke. I did it. I switched to suckless on Arch and learned how to patch.
And now I can't stop messing with my configs.
On topic. I have been running my own git server for years. Still an informative video as usual.
Take care, man.
I did it!
>systemd
I was just thinking about this the other day. Based Luke reading my thoughts
Luke try mosh (mobile shell) instead of ssh, it doesn't wait for your server's response every time you type. It's literally made for people living in the woods
i know the struggle about internet speeds while living in the middle of nowhere. i my self live in the mountains here in norway. about 1.5 km to the closest other human lol. and ive found that using 4g hotspot from my phone, with a unlimited data plan was the cheapest way to get online here. and i actually am up to 1mb/s now from where i was at 300kbs. kinda cool, plus its just one bill for my phone and internet now. totally worth the struggle to live away from all the chaos imo.
< 20 Mins videos, interesting and straight to the point material, no bullshit. I like your new format boy. you have skills.

Can't wait for the next video!
Is this because github is gonna stop using master terminology?
I don't understand why GitHub is changing the "main" branch from master to main to avoid slavery. WTF? If you follow that logic, it technically makes you racist. So "master copy" is now racist too? This is solution looking for problems.
@@richardlighthouse5328 sacrificing some developer conveinience for a bit of attention from the woke press, amplified by righties. Not worth getting upset about imo
@@keveinkevin4422 fuck Microsoft fuck github
He had his own git server before which he's setting up again here
With their logic, github secretly calls devs who pushes into master as racists.
You are creating content I can CONSUUME a lot nowadays. You can chown a file for the group by appending the username with a dot. So chown git. makes the FILe owned by git group also.
The 2nd part on this series, i.e., the part Luke explains how to setup a web frontend, is not yet uploaded, is it?
At least I cant find it...
cool.
you should take a look at the git flow standard.
it's just naming conventions for branches and dev workflow.
there are actually scripts that do the git flow for you.
Hi Luke Smith, thanks for the wonderful tutorial, I followed the same I am facing one issue. while cloning and pushing it is asking the password of the server. and I am unable to find the second part of this tutorial can you please help on this thanks
any possibility you could post the second video going through the process for making a web frontend? I have been going through hell with gitweb, teach us senpai
Nice video, did you made the second part for it as well? Setting up the Web Interface for the Git Server?
Thanks for being a good boy before it became a thing. nice video!
You can set your alias to push `HEAD` instead of `--all`.
Excellent stuff. Instant subscribe. Looking forward to your demo on stagit, too.
I am looking forward to that too.
Hey, I'm not from the USA and we count on fingers differently. I knew English speaking cultures frequently start counting using the index finger and the thumb is the fifth, but is that only true for numbers 1 - 5? I thought it's the same on the left hand for 6-10 but you started counting 6 using your left thumb instead of the left index.
@8:48 vs 8:53
anyway, thanks for the video, I'm working on my own independent infrastructure including my own git server
where is the git web interface setup video?
Hey man! Thanke you for your videos. In chromium you can find extension "vimium" - it help dont use mouse in browser. I think it save your time ;)
great video, thx,
i setup my git server, and when i do "git push" it's push to github and to my "raspberrypi" this is crazy, never though this will be that easy to setup
You totally need keybindings for moving your face around on a grid or something.
I want to expose the git server online. how do i harden the endpoint so that it uses only ssh protocol is allowed. I cant see anything online on it.
Thank you so much for this tutorial! Do you have plans to do one on adding the front end GUI anytime soon?
If you want a frontend, Gitea is pretty good. Very similar look and feel to GitHub, and it's extremely easy to set up.
8:45 Morgan Freeman: but it did take longer than 10 seconds
A video on technicalities of git bare repositority on managing the dot files would be awesome.
Thank you for this. Helped me understand some things I was curious about.
creating files on the server side seems a bit tedious maybe you can write some code to automatically create these files based on the repos name.
And you could've just installed a gitlab server on your machine for this but I really wanna see how you'll manage it all, best of luck!
nah
next...something about lxc/lxd and chroot environment?
cgit is a pretty nice simple http git ui. would recommend.
Although cgit is nicer than stagit, the only issue with it is that it's a dynamic program while stagit just pumps out static pages.
Would love to see a walkthrough on setting up a VPS!
it's "that" simple to install our own git server WOW,
gonna try that on my raspberry pi, thx
Nice video :) It is very simple and clear.
In next video it will be simple commit/branches reading app? It will have pull-request functionality?
(Milton from Office Space:) I was told there would be a part two?
No part 2?
You make it sound so easy! wow
hey i am looking for the next video but i can't see it where is it ? And very nice video
Explained very well. Thank you. I have subscribed.
Thanks for your knownledge
What happened to the follow up to this??
You can use gitolite to manage git repositories yourself
Wouldn't hurt if you went through explaining the DNS records a bit, especially considering your latest video!
Most of us developers have become accustomed to have a lot more than just Git... And it really is necessary if available. So, if we want self-hosted, then something like GitLab really is necessary. Unfortunately it is quite bloated (in terms of config management)... Their default setup runs chef in Docker! And if you question them about it they come up with all sorts of excuses...
Next video Luke: How to set up your NASA base space station.
Btw like your own search engine and this video as well.
any chance you make a video how to make a local git with gitolite administration;
Hey Luke, thanks a lot for this video just did this for my local hp device, i was wondering is there a way i can make a ""Root folder" for all the repositories to automatically push to when i do "git push home master" so i can have '/var/www/git/' as the location at the end of the URL in gitconfig instead of '/var/www/git/project_name.git' or do i really need to use 'git remote add' every time? Thanks again i'm smiling like a maniac now i have a self-hosted repo!
Edit: Also forgot to mention i REALLY love the idea to put in in /var/www/ as im building my little hp box into an offline backup of sorts, it already has map data, stack exchange, and a few other dumps that i can read offline, along with a a copy of the NHS site and pubmed database for if i need medical information but dont have internet.. a
More videos like this Luke!
just what I needed. thank you.
Why use git? You get the little front end that you mention for free with fossil-scm.
u can host gitLab, or now GiTea which looks alot like github
Do you upload your videos with that internet connection?
no he puts videos on a thunb drive and drives to australia to upload them

If you haven't already, take a look at lazygit. Written in Go, SLOC 83. It's a git game changer. It's got an AUR package, or clone the repo and 'Go build' it.
As always, thanks for your contributions.
0:30 did they use some kind of software to generate the git site? I've seen a lot of people's git site has the exact same layout and styles
You never did the GitWeb part
Thank you Sir,, this helped me a lot !!!
Thank you!
For those interested in a setup of a minimal ui for the git server, I found this video czcams.com/video/gG9Cb5LWzM8/video.htmlsi=p94hAbZgzxk6waCs
It basically covers what someone (Ahem... Luke) has supposed to cover in part2
How can i setup a alias to /var/www/git?
Is it possible to create multiple gitolite account in a server ?
Uhh, your diff for adding Aporcypha to kjv looks funny on your website...
Lmao. I also setup my own Github clone. I ended up using Gogs.
You can also just use Docker and setup your own Gitlab....
GitBucket is rather nice, you should take a look at it as it's FOSS
Luke, when do you plan to make the stagit video?
I see, luke still use MASTER branch, as a whitey, I get personally offended.
I visited your website and i wonder... Did you read unabomber manifesto?
can we connect this git server with our own Jenkins ?
Can Git Server be installed on WIndows 11?
this follow up git web ui video is missing, i guess?
Yeah
Sir can we see the code on server side pushed by devolpers??
Use mosh instead of ssh, makes it easier
Since you're going to setup access over HTTP, I don't really get what was the point of creating a new git user as no one is going to use ssh and you haven't even put anything in the git user's home directory. Instead you have a folder in your /var/www that is owned by the git user instead of something like www-data for example which is needed for HTTP access. If you're enabling ssh login then you should disable the default bash shell and set the default shell as git-shell. Lastly, to create a new bare repository git init --bare repo.git is sufficient, no need to first create the directory, cd to it and then running git init.
You uploaded this right after I installled gitea. :(
Awesome dood.........
Make sure your main branch is named 'master' :^)
This is good stuff!
master branch! white list, black list!
YES
If you need your own server with web gui use opensource gitea.
When is part 2 coming?
where is the second part
