			## Overview
			Gitblit is an open-source, integrated pure Java stack for managing, viewing, and serving [Git][git] repositories.
			Its designed primarily as a tool for small workgroups who want to host [Git][git] repositories on a Windows machine. Having said that, it works equally well on any standard Linux distribution.

			Gitblit is an open-source, pure Java stack for managing, viewing, and serving [Git][git] repositories.
			It's designed primarily as a tool for small workgroups who want to host centralized repositories.

			### Design Principles
			1. [Keep It Simple, Stupid](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KISS_principle)
			2. Offer useful features for serving Git repositories. If feature is complex, refer to #1.
			3. All dependencies must be retrievable from a publicly accessible [Maven](http://maven.apache.org) repository.<br/>This is to ensure authenticity of dependencies and to keep the Gitblit distribution svelte.
			You can browse a live demo [here](https://demo-gitblit.rhcloud.com) hosted on [RedHat's OpenShift][rhcloud] cloud service.

			### Features
			- Out-of-the-box integrated stack requiring minimal configuration
			- JGit SmartHTTP servlet
			- Browser and git client authentication
			- Four repository access control configurations and a Read-Only flag
			<ul class='noBullets'>
			<li>![anonymous](blank.png) Anonymous View, Clone & Push</li>
			<li>![push](lock_go_16x16.png) Authenticated Push</li>
			<li>![clone](lock_pull_16x16.png) Authenticated Clone & Push</li>
			<li>![view](shield_16x16.png) Authenticated View, Clone & Push</li>
			<li>![freeze](cold_16x16.png) Freeze repository (i.e. deny push, make read-only)
			</ul>
			- Gitweb inspired UI
			- Administrators may create, edit, rename, or delete repositories through the web UI
			- Administrators may create, edit, rename, or delete users through the web UI
			- Repository Owners may edit repositories through the web UI
			- Automatically generates a self-signed certificate for https communications
			- Git-notes support
			- Dates can optionally be displayed using the browser's reported timezone
			- Author and Committer email address display can be controlled
			- Dynamic zip downloads feature
			- Markdown view support
			- Syntax highlighting
			- Customizable regular expression handling for commit messages
			- Single text file for server configuration
			- Single text file for users configuration
			- Simple repository stats and activity graph (uses Google Charts)
			- Optional utility pages
			<ul class='noBullets'>
			<li>![docs](book_16x16.png) Docs page which enumerates all Markdown files within a repository</li>
			<li>![tickets](bug_16x16.png) Ticgit ticket pages (based on last MIT release bf57b032 2009-01-27)</li>
			</ul>
			### GO: Single-Stack Solution

			### Limitations
			- HTTP/HTTPS are the only supported protocols
			- Access controls are not path-based, they are repository-based
			- Only Administrators can create, rename or delete repositories
			- Gitblit is an integrated, full-stack solution. There is no WAR build at this time.
			Gitblit GO is an integrated, single-stack solution based on Jetty.

			### Todo List
			- Code documentation
			- Unit testing
			- Branch selector on Metrics
			- Blame
			You do not need Apache httpd, Perl, Git, or Gitweb. Should you want to use some or all of those, you still can; Gitblit plays nice with the other kids on the block.

			### Idea List
			- Ticgit activity/timeline
			- Ticgit query feature with paging support
			- Ticgit ticket change history
			- View images on Blob page
			- View other binary files on Blob page
			- Markdown editing feature
			This is what you should download if you want to go from zero to Git in less than 5 mins.

			### License
			Licensed under the [Apache License, Version 2.0](http://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0)
			All dependencies are bundled.

			### Inspirations
			- [Gitweb](http://www.git-scm.com)
			- [Fossil](http://www.fossil-scm.org)
			### WAR: For Your Servlet Container
			Gitblit WAR is what you should download if you already have a servlet container available that you wish to use. Jetty 6/7/8 and Tomcat 6/7 are known to work. Generally, any Servlet 2.5 or Servlet 3.0 container should work.

			## Architecture
			All dependencies are bundled.

			### Express: For the Cloud
			Gitblit Express is a prepared distribution for [RedHat's OpenShift][rhcloud] cloud service.

			### Bundled Dependencies
			The following dependencies are bundled with the Gitblit zip distribution file.

			### You decide how to use Gitblit

			### Downloaded Dependencies
			The following dependencies are automatically downloaded from the Apache Maven repository and from the Eclipse Maven repository when Gitblit is launched for the first time.
			Gitblit can be used as a dumb repository viewer with no administrative controls or user accounts.
			Gitblit can be used as a complete Git stack for cloning, pushing, and repository access control.
			Gitblit can be used without any other Git tooling (including actual Git) or it can cooperate with your established tools.

			### Easy Remote Management

			### Other Build Dependencies
			- [Fancybox image viewer](http://fancybox.net) (MIT and GPL dual-licensed)
			- [JUnit](http://junit.org) (Common Public License)
			Administrators can create and manage all repositories, user accounts, and teams from the Web UI.
			Administrators can create and manage all repositories, user accounts, and teams from the JSON RPC interface using the [Gitblit Manager](http://code.google.com/p/gitblit/downloads/detail?name=%MANAGER%) or your own custom tooling.

			## Building from Source
			[Eclipse](http://eclipse.org) is recommended for development as the project settings are preconfigured.
			### Integration with Your Infrastructure

			Additionally, [Google CodePro AnalytiX](http://code.google.com/javadevtools), [eclipse-cs](http://eclipse-cs.sourceforge.net), [FindBugs](http://findbugs.sourceforge.net), and [EclEmma](http://www.eclemma.org) are recommended development tools.
			- Groovy push hook scripts
			- Pluggable user service mechanism
			- LDAP authentication with optional LDAP-controlled Team memberships
			- Custom authentication, authorization, and user management
			- Rich RSS feeds
			- JSON-based RPC mechanism
			- [Java Client RSS/JSON API library](http://code.google.com/p/gitblit/downloads/detail?name=%API%) for custom integration

			1. Clone the git repository from [Github][gitbltsrc].
			2. Import the gitblit project into your Eclipse workspace.<br/>
			There will be lots of build errors.
			3. Using Ant, execute the `build.xml` script in the project root.<br/>
			This will download all necessary build dependencies and will also generate the Keys class for accessing settings.
			4. Select your gitblit project root and Refresh the project, this should correct all build problems.
			5. Using JUnit, execute the `com.gitblit.tests.GitBlitSuite` test suite.<br/>
			This will clone some repositories from the web and run through the unit tests.
			5. Review the settings in `gitblit.properties` in your project root.
			- By default, the git.repositoriesFolder points to the repositories cloned by the test suite.<br/>
			- If running on Linux you may have to change the served port(s) to > 1024 unless you are developing as the root user.
			6. Execute the com.gitblit.Launcher class to start Gitblit.
			### Backup Strategy

			Gitblit includes a backup mechanism (federation) which can be used to backup repositories and, optionally, user accounts, team definitions, server settings, & Groovy push hook scripts from your Gitblit instance to another Gitblit instance or to a [Gitblit Federation Client](http://code.google.com/p/gitblit/downloads/detail?name=%FEDCLIENT%). Similarly, you can use the federation mechanism to aggregate individual workspace Gitblit instances to a common, centralized server.

			### Java Runtime Requirement

			Gitblit requires a Java 6 Runtime Environment (JRE) or a Java 6 Development Kit (JDK).
