What git server solution to use on windows and active directory?


We are looking for the best solution for setting up a local git server. Our wishlist is

  • run on Windows Server 2008R2
  • small team - less than ten developers
  • easy to set up
  • easy to use
  • active directory authentication of users
  • robust
  • web gui would be nice
  • free would be nice

Solutions we're thinking about

  • gitosis looks like a hassle to set up and has no web gui
  • bare git on a windows file share - seems easy but no web gui of course
  • gitstack looks good but is not free

Any advice?


Solution

  • I have made a great experience with Atlassian's Stash.

    It costs 10$ for 10 Developers and supports Projects with multiple git repos.

    You have nothing to setup since it comes with integrated git, ssh and http server. (Just the server itself duh - but its not that hard, 30 minutes should be enough)

    It provides a nice Webgui. You should check it out, there is a test licence for 30 days I guess.
