GitLab

Yes it's Ruby. Yes it's time for yet another shitty "solution to everything" framework... sigh...

Configure

• admin console

• docs

Tools

• to get to a rails console:

sudo gitlab-rails console

Install

• set up shitcutter.com in domains.google.com and certbot

• Set up haproxy redirection; see haproxy.cfg for details. Note that you will be redirecting shitcutter.com https to glam:8095 http.

• Install up to the point where you configure

• configure

sudo emacs /etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb
external_url 'https://shitcutter.com'
nginx['listen_https'] = false
nginx['listen_port'] = 8095
nginx['redirect_http_to_https'] = false
letsencrypt['enable'] = false

• build

sudo gitlab-ctl reconfigure # whoa, this builds/bakes everything

• fix root pw RIGHT AWAY

sudo gitlab-rake "gitlab:password:reset[root]"

• browse to admin console and get configuring; for now, turn off sign-up (if anyone wants in later, we can turn it on as it has admin approval turned on)
