GWVP ==== Git over Web Via PHP is a project to do something i've wanted to have a long time - a web based git remote with administration and all git related activities happening over http/https. Git has this now, its called git-http-backend and its quite broken. If you read its man page it'll tell you this: To enable anonymous read access but authenticated write access, require authorization with a LocationMatch directive: AuthType Basic AuthName "Git Access" Require group committers ... This will never work in a month of sundays, but yet its been in the man page and been un-fixed now for a year and besides that i've decided i want a web based one. Im sick of git over ssh with ssh keys, its annoying when it can be done with user/password auth over https. Thats what the project is designed to do - give people the ability to administrate a set of a git repo's via a web interface and have the same web interface for pull and push. What you will ultimately be able to do is: 1) get list of git repos (with an interface like gitweb) 2) create users and assign permissions into repo's 3) create repos 4) import repos but most importantly: git add remote origin https://username@server/git/myrepo.git git push How it Works ============ Initially this thing will have a fairly boring interface for creating/contorlling users and repos while also pushing directly back to git-http-backend AND providing the authentication interface IT needs to function Gitweb.cgi may also be incorporated as the git view tool - but thats less important at this point
