/usr/share/gitolite/conf/example.gitolite.rc

## in progress below ##

1. add host to gitlab group, build host, puppet (installs packages)
2. setup mysql
   1. start mysql and run the secure installation:

      # su - root
      # service mysql start
      # mysql_secure_installation

   2. create the mysql user:

      grant all privileges on gitlabhq_production.* to 'gitlabdb'@'localhost' identified by 'password' with grant option;

   3. create the backup user:

      grant RELOAD, SELECT, SUPER, REPLICATION CLIENT on *.* to 'mysqlbackup'@'localhost' identified by 'password';

   4. put the mysqlbackup password into the $backupdir/buser file
3. must add git user to /etc/security/access.conf +:git:ALL
4. add to /etc/ssh_config: EnableSSHKeysign yes
5. setup gitolite:
   1. create the gitlab ssh key: <code>sudo -H -u gitlab ssh-keygen -q -N '' -t rsa -f /home/gitlab/.ssh/id_rsa</code> - in puppet now
   2. setup the git user:

      #not needed on centos: sudo -u git sh -c 'echo -e "PATH=\$PATH:/home/git/bin\nexport PATH" > /home/git/.profile'
      #not needed on centos: sudo -u git -i -H gl-system-install
      # in puppet: sudo cp /home/gitlab/.ssh/id_rsa.pub /home/git/gitlab.pub
      # in puppet: sudo chmod 777 /home/git/gitlab.pub
      sed -i 's/0077/0007/g' /usr/share/gitolite/conf/example.gitolite.rc
      sudo -u git sh -c 'echo -e "PATH=\$PATH:/home/git/bin\nexport PATH" >> /home/git/.profile'
      sudo -u git -H sh -c "gl-setup -q /home/git/gitlab.pub"

6. need to fix gitolite install:

   cd /home/git
   #sudo -u git -H mkdir bin
   #sudo -u git sh -c 'echo -e "PATH=\$PATH:/home/git/bin\nexport PATH" >> /home/git/.profile'
   #sudo -u git sh -c 'gitolite/install -ln /home/git/bin'
   
   sudo cp /home/gitlab/.ssh/id_rsa.pub /home/git/gitlab.pub
   sudo chmod 0444 /home/git/gitlab.pub
   
   sudo -u git -H sh -c "PATH=/home/git/bin:$PATH; gitolite setup -pk /home/git/gitlab.pub"

   1. test gitolite:

      sudo -u gitlab -H git clone git@localhost:gitolite-admin.git /tmp/gitolite-admin

   2. start redis

1. clone gitlab source:

   cd /home/gitlab
   sudo -H -u gitlab git clone git://github.com/gitlabhq/gitlabhq.git gitlab

2. rerun puppet to install gitlab config files
3. install glibc-devel.x86_64
4. install local gitlab gems:

   cd /home/gitlab/gitlab
   sudo -u gitlab -H bundle install --without development test sqlite postgres --deployment

5. create the database:

    sudo -u gitlab bundle exec rake gitlab:app:setup RAILS_ENV=production

6. setup hooks:

   sudo cp ./lib/hooks/post-receive /home/git/.gitolite/hooks/common/post-receive
   sudo chown git:git /home/git/.gitolite/hooks/common/post-receive

7. fix hooks:

   mkdir -p /home/git/share/gitolite/hooks/common
   ln -s /usr/share/gitolite/hooks/common/post-receive.mirrorpush /home/git/share/gitolite/hooks/common/post-receive

8. check the status:

    sudo -u gitlab bundle exec rake gitlab:app:status RAILS_ENV=production

9. make sure gitlab starts:

   sudo -u gitlab bundle exec rails s -e production

10. ?enable the auto-merge feature:

    cd /home/gitlab/gitlab
    sudo -u gitlab -H bundle exec rake gitlab:app:enable_automerge RAILS_ENV=production

11. start apache
12. start resque

login………admin@local.host password……5iveL!fe

new password: ccitr0cks

should probably install to /var/lib/gitlab, /var/lib/git

look at example.gitolite.rc for some config options:

$GL_LOGT=“$GL_ADMINDIR/logs/gitolite-%y-%m.log”;
