## What is Gitblit?

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.

### GO: Single-Stack Solution

*Gitblit GO* is an integrated, single-stack solution based on Jetty.

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.

This is what you should download if you want to go from zero to Git in less than 5 mins.

### 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.

### You decide how to use Gitblit

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.

### All Transports

The SSH, HTTP, & GIT protocols are supported and ready-to-go out of the box.

### Issue tracking with branch-based pull requests

Gitblit blends elements of GitHub, BitBucket, and Gerrit to provide a streamlined collaboration workflow based on branches within the primary repository.

### Easy Remote Management

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](%GCURL%manager-${project.releaseVersion}.zip) or your own custom tooling. 
Administrators can create and manage all repositories, user accounts, and teams from the *command-line* using SSH & the [Powertools plugin](https://github.com/gitblit-org/gitblit-powertools-plugin).

### Integration with Your Infrastructure

- Extendable by plugins
- Groovy push hook scripts
- Pluggable user service mechanism
    - LDAP authentication with optional LDAP-controlled Team memberships
    - Redmine authentication
    - SalesForce.com authentication
    - Windows authentication
    - PAM authentication
    - Custom authentication, authorization, and user management
- Rich RSS feeds
- JSON-based RPC mechanism
- Java Client RSS/JSON API library for custom integration

### 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](%GCURL%fedclient-${project.releaseVersion}.zip).  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 8 Runtime Environment (JRE) or a Java 8 Development Kit (JDK).
