Debian package files

Matthias Käppler requested to merge github/fork/rsampaio/master into master

Created by: rsampaio

Added files to create a proper .deb file as follows:

git clone repository/gitlabhq.git cd gitlabhq dpkg-buildpackage

To install the package and deps use: dpkg -i ../gitlabhq_*.deb apt-get -f install

Advantages over debian_ubuntu.sh:

  • Init and preinst scripts automatically setup the environment and git/gitlab keys.
  • No need of any -dev package to deploy in production (including gcc, cpp, python-dev...)
  • Use distro packages for gitolite
  • Nginx vhost debianized (not enabled by default, /etc/nginx/sites-available)

Thanks for the great project, much simpler and elegant than gitorious. Rodrigo.
