Gitorious smoothed acceptance of Git by my team. It performs well, even with our largest repository, and the Gitorious development team is communicative and helpful.

Local install

Gitorious behind your firewall

Running Gitorious on your own server provides your developers with the same features you find on gitorious.org — with the security of running behind your corporate firewall.

Virtual appliance

We provide a ready-to-use virtual appliance to be installed on your server. The CentOS based appliance contains the latest version of Gitorious, including all its features.

Support

We provide support via email during our office hours: 9-17 CET, Monday-Friday, and will respond within one business day. We also offer extended support contracts, including 24/7 phone support. Get in touch for a customized plan.

We keep your server up to date

We will install and manage your server using Puppet, which means your system will be managed automatically by us. This way, we ensure your Gitorious server runs a current version of Gitorious. This includes data migrations that need to be performed, and the installation of additional system services and libraries when required.

We keep your server running

We install and configure the Monit monitoring tool on the server, which will keep all the Gitorious components running at all times, as long as the host system is operational and connected to the network.

FAQ

How do you install Gitorious on my network?
We use Puppet to configure and maintain your server, so your server needs to connect to our Puppetmaster server to fetch configuration from that. We will provide a single IP address and port required to do so. Furthermore, in order to work effectively with your server, we need direct access over SSH. We will provide a single SSH public key and a static IP from which connections will originate.
Can I add custom features at a later point?
Most certainly. As a Gitorious local install customer, you have access to the Gitorious core team at reduced consulting rates. This offer can be utilized at any point to add new features, prioritize certain fixes or further customize your install.
What am I paying for?
The fee we charge for Gitorious local install is not a license fee. In fact, Gitorious is and will always be Free Software, and you can run it entirely on your own , free of charge. However, buying Gitorious local install from Gitorious AS, allows you to trust us to keep your Gitorious running, solve any problems that may occur, and take care of upgrades and support. Gitorious local install is hassle-free Git hosting for your company.
What do I need to know about the virtual appliance and its services?
The virtual appliance is designed to be self-sustaining and zero-maintenance. In case of a power outage or other problems with the host OS, all services will resume normal operation when the host is back up. In case of service disruption we will promptly assist you in getting things back up.
Do you support Redhat Enterprise Linux?
Since CentOS is based on RHEL, we fully support using that instead of CentOS, provided you purchase licenses for RHEL and perform a basic operating system installation on your server.
What are the technical specs for the virtual appliance?

Our stock offering consists of VMDK files that work well with VMware, Virtualbox and other virtualization technologies. The virtual appliance is based the CentOS operating system (5.x at the time of writing). If your needs are not covered by this setup, get in touch, and we will work something out.

Technical requirements for your hardware will vary depending on the number of users and level of activity. We recommend at least 4GB of RAM, dual core CPU and as much disk as needed. We can help further refine these requirements based on your specific needs.

Can I integrate Gitorious with proprietary system X?
Most certainly. If your existing workflow is centered around an issue tracker or wiki, your users are managed centrally by an LDAP server or you have any other needs to use existing systems we can help you integrate Gitorious with them.
When will my local install be ready?
Depending on the work required to get your server(s) ready, most new setups are completed within a week of ordering. Customizations (e.g. UI adjustments for your company, and so on) as well as new/modified features for your setup may take longer, depending on the amount of development needed. We will provide a plan for implementing Gitorious in your organization, along with estimates of the work required to get you up and running.
