| | | ### I can not push using git:// protocol on Windows using native Git
|
|---|
| | |
|
|---|
| | | This is a long-standing, known bug in the native Git for Windows implementation.

| | | Please see [this thread](https://groups.google.com/d/topic/msysgit/at8D7J-h7mw/discussion) for details.

| | | ### Why can't I access Gitblit GO from another machine?
|
|---|
| | | 1. Please check *server.httpBindInterface* and *server.httpsBindInterface* in `gitblit.properties`, you may be only be serving on *localhost*.
|
|---|
| | | 2. Please see the above answer about "**can't open upload pack**".
|
|---|
| | |
|---|
| | | 2. Confirm that the servlet container process has full read-write-execute permissions to your *git.repositoriesFolder*.

| | |
|

| | | ### Gitblit WAR will not authenticate any users?!
|
|---|
| | | Confirm that the <context-param> *realm.userService* value in your `web.xml` file actually points to a `users.conf` or `users.properties` file.

| | | ### Gitblit won't open my grouped repository (/group/myrepo.git) or browse my log/branch/tag/ref?!
|
|---|
| | | This is likely an url encoding/decoding problem with forward slashes:
|
|---|
| | |
|---|
| | | Gitblit is not meant to be a social coding resource like [Github](http://github.com) or [Bitbucket](http://bitbucket.com) with 100s or 1000s of users. Gitblit is designed to fulfill the same function as your centralized Subversion or CVS server.
|

| | | ### Why does Gitblit exist when there is Git and Gitweb?

| | | Originally, I was going to use [Mercurial](http://mercurial.selenic.com) but...

|
|---|
| | | Parsing command-line output is fragile and suboptimal.<br/>Unfortunately this is necessary because Mercurial is an application, not a library.
|
|---|
| | | - Mercurial HTTP/HTTPS needs to run as CGI through Apache/IIS/etc, as mod_python through Apache, or served with a built-in http server.<br/>

|

| | | This requires setup and maintenance of multiple, mixed 3rd party components.
|

| | |
|
|---|
| | | Gitblit eliminates all that complication with its 100% Java stack and simple single configuration file.
|
|---|
| | |
|---|
| | | Additionally, Git and Gitweb do not offer repository creation or user management.

| | | ### Do I need real Git?
|
|---|
| | | No (mostly). Gitblit is based on [JGit][jgit] which is a pure Java implementation of the [Git version control system][git].<br/>

| | | Gitblit will run just fine with a JRE. Gitblit can optionally use `keytool` from the JDK to generate self-signed certificates, but normally Gitblit uses [BouncyCastle][bouncycastle] for that need.
|
|---|
| | |
|
|---|
| | | ### Does Gitblit use a database to store its data?
|
|---|
| | | No. Gitblit stores its repository configuration information within the `.git/config` file and its user information in `users.conf`, `users.properties`, or whatever filename is configured in `gitblit.properties`.

| | | ### Can I manually edit users.conf, gitblit.properties, or .git/config?
|
|---|
| | | Yes. You can manually manipulate all of them and (most) changes will be immediately available to Gitblit.<br/>Exceptions to this are noted in `gitblit.properties`.

| | | As of 0.9.0, Gitblit supports Lucene-based searching.
|
|---|
| | |
|
|---|
| | | If Lucene indexing is disabled, Gitblit falls back to brute-force commit-traversal search. Commit-traversal search supports case-insensitive searching of *commit message* (default), *author*, and *committer*.<br/>
