Overview

Gitblit is an open-source, pure Java stack for managing, viewing, and serving Git repositories.

Its designed primarily as a tool for small workgroups who want to host centralized repositories.

Gitblit is available in two variations:

• *Gitblit GO* - a complete & integrated pure Java stack

  
  This is what you should download if you want to go from zero to Git in less than 5 mins.
  
  Gitblit GO is like a mashup of Apache httpd, Git, and Gitweb with simplified configuration and maintenance.
  
  All dependencies are downloaded on first execution.

  
  

• *Gitblit WAR* - a traditional WAR distribution

  
  This is what you should download if you want to deploy Gitblit into your own servlet container (e.g. Tomcat, Jetty, etc).
  
  All dependencies are bundled.
  

Java Runtime Requirement

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