    GitLab Omnibus project

    This project creates full-stack platform-specific packages for GitLab!

    Installation

    After the steps below your GitLab instance should reachable over HTTP, and have an admin user with username root and password 5iveL!fe.

    Ubuntu 12.04

    sudo apt-get install openssh-server
sudo apt-get install postfix # sendmail or exim is also OK
sudo dpkg -i gitlab-x.y.z.deb # this is the .deb you downloaded
sudo gitlab-ctl reconfigure

    CentOS 6.5

    sudo yum install openssh-server
sudo yum install postfix # sendmail or exim is also OK
sudo rpm -i gitlab-x.y.z.rpm
sudo gitlab-ctl reconfigure
# Open up the firewall for HTTP and SSH
sudo lokkit -s http -s ssh

    How to manage an Omnibus-installed GitLab

    Start/stop GitLab

    You can start, stop or restart GitLab and all of its components with the following commands.

    # Start all GitLab components
sudo gitlab-ctl start

# Stop all GitLab components
sudo gitlab-ctl stop

# Restart all GitLab components
sudo gitlab-ctl restart

    It is also possible to start, stop or restart individual components.

    sudo gitlab-ctl restart unicorn

    Creating the gitlab.rb configuration file

    sudo mkdir -p /etc/gitlab
sudo touch /etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb
sudo chmod 600 /etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb

    Configuring the external URL for GitLab

    In order for GitLab to display correct repository clone links to your users it needs to know the URL under which it is reached by your users, e.g. http://gitlab.example.com. Add the following line to /etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb:

    external_url "http://gitlab.example.com"

    Run sudo gitlab-ctl reconfigure for the change to take effect.

    Invoking Rake tasks

    To invoke a GitLab Rake task, use gitlab-rake. For example:

    sudo gitlab-rake gitlab:backup:create

    Contrary to with a traditional GitLab installation, there is no need to change the user or the RAILS_ENV environment variable; this is taken care of by the gitlab-rake wrapper script.

    Directory structure

    Omnibus-gitlab uses four different directories.

    • /opt/gitlab holds application code for GitLab and its dependencies.
    • /var/opt/gitlab holds application data and configuration files that gitlab-ctl reconfigure writes to.
    • /etc/gitlab holds configuration files for omnibus-gitlab. These are the only files that you should ever have to edit manually.
    • /var/log/gitlab contains all log data generated by components of omnibus-gitlab.

    Building your own package

    See the separate build documentation.
