docker-git-server

A simple dockerized git repository server. Also available on Docker Hub.

Usage

Start the container:

docker run -d -p 1234:22 \
   --name git_server \
   -v git_data:/git/data \
   winlu/docker-git-server

Or a simple docker-compose up (you might want to edit the source of the image in).

Add a user:

docker exec git_server sh add_git_user.sh winlu "`cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub`"

Initialize a repo:

ssh localhost -p 1234 "init my_repo.git"

Add remote to your git repository:

git remote add docker_git_server ssh://localhost:1234/~/my_repo.git

And push:

git push docker_git_server --set-upstream master

Persistence

It is recommended to use a docker volume for persistence because of file permission issues. All data (setup users, repositories, ssh server keys) is kept alive during container removal/upgrade.
