Make

Gitea makes heavy use of Make to automate tasks and improve development. This guide covers how to install Make.

On Linux

Install with the package manager.

On Ubuntu/Debian:

sudo apt-get install make

On Fedora/RHEL/CentOS:

sudo yum install make

On Windows

One of these three distributions of Make will run on Windows:

• Single binary build. Copy somewhere and add to PATH.
  • 32-bits version
  • 64-bits version
• MinGW includes a build.
  • The binary is called mingw32-make.exe instead of make.exe. Add the bin folder to PATH.
• Chocolatey package. Run choco install make
