What is the best git hosting sw? - Gitolit vs Gitlab vs Gitorius

Question

I am looking for an environment to host git for multiple users. So I was looking for comparisons between Gitolit , Gitlab and Gitorius . But I am not getting anything useful.

Is there anyone who has experience with various hosting tools and can give advice?

Answer 1

• Gitolite is not a git hosting environment: it is the authorization level that grants or denies access to the git repository.
  This is the https or ssh level, which allows you to authenticate the user and git repo hosting.
  See " How do programs like guitarolite work?"
• GitLab and Gitorious both provide git hosting, with (in my opinion) an easier installation process and more features for GitLab.

When comparing the GitLab function and the Gitorious features , the task tracker is more complete, the fork and authorization levels are present, GitLab has teams and groups , webhooks and APIs.
Development is more active (one release every month) on GitLab.

Update: GitLab acquired Gitorious

Answer 2

You can give Gitorious and Gitlab a try at Bitnami ( http://bitnami.com/stack/gitorious and http://bitnami.com/stack/gitlab ) There you can download installers, virtual machines and run cloud servers for Amazon and Azure . All of these options are free. You can also start the 1-hour demo server (if you just want to get a quick idea of ​​the application). Disclaimer: I am one of the Bitnami developers, but as stated above, the packages are completely free.
