@Burgi train station?

@djsmiley2k gotta learn what each line does, not just copy-paste :P

what are you trying to do?

what kind of git server do you want to host?

git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Git-on-the-Server-The-Protocols

'dumb' http is pretty simple (webserver config is basically just serve the directory)

'smart' http needs server side script

which means you either need one of the git web thingies (language depends, e.g. gitlab uses ruby on rails) or the basic cgi script

pxe looks good for booting multiple computers

Bob

alternatively you can just set up nginx as a reverse proxy pointing towards another server (e.g. git instaweb)

djsmiley2k

hehe

Bob

I went with gitlab cause I wanted proper user permissions/management over http and ssh

djsmiley2k

@Bob that's what I'm thinking is cool.

doing the reverse proxy thing, but tbh I'm not sure I care enough to set it up.

Bob

@djsmiley2k yea I went reverse proxy into gitlab

djsmiley2k

It doesn't help I have the added complicate of vmware eating all the networking ;D

Bob

but for something simplier (short-term, few users, etc.) dumb http could work

djsmiley2k

along with, dealing with mundane tickets too.

it's really for me to see wtf I've done in git

i.e. history

rather than cli.

Bob

then you'd want one of the git web thingos

or just view it locally in one of the git history browser things

I prefer a local client tbh

@djsmiley2k windows or linux?

git extensions is by far my favourite but it's mainly targeted at windows gitextensions.github.io

djsmiley2k

linux host.

@Bob linux host

Bob

@djsmiley2k I mean where you want to view it :P

djsmiley2k

errr, linux guest in vmware, running the git server :P

Oh, don't really care

You did just point out I could point my windows git gui at it instead

that'd work too

Bob

lol

djsmiley2k

I just expected the git-daemon to have some kind of web front end I could enable in nginx as well.

I've moved onto working with sed :D

Bob

ehh

@djsmiley2k the core git stuff is veeeeeeeeeeeeery simple, last I checked

I think gitlab is your best bet for a full-fat self-hosted one with fancy commit graphs

but I still find them less flexible than a good local gui client

and the bigger ones are a bit of a pain to set up and maintain

1 hour later…

@Bob See, I didn't care about any of that stuff, I just wanted a 'here are the files, here is the history of the files' but I'm thinking that it maybe easier to setup

Ok, this weirdness gets weirder

the file creating the routing table? 600~ lines.

The routing table? 2100 lines....

Something is very wrong here, I don't yet know what

zixuan

Jan 21, 2019 17:16

me too.

the file creating it 3200 lines?

The table, 8540 line?

The weirdness gets more weirder for linux

I don't know why those numbers are so big.

of course Git is simple

Burgi

@djsmiley2k takeout apparently

zixuan

me too
