Gitosis does not have as fine grained control as gitolite nor is it as well documented (config file errors are hard to debug), but it works well within its limitations. Both are now available as Debian/Ubuntu packages (gitolite was not when I started using gitosis). The other obvious difference is that gitolite is written in Perl and gitosis is written in Python. This should be a superficial difference, but sometimes the world isn't rational.
- bronson 15y agoGitosis development is stone dead afaict. I would not suggest using it for new deploys.
- fr0sty 15y agoOne other thing to point out is that Gitosis is abandonware (last commit was made in September of 2009). Gitolite on the otherhand is under active development, the documentation is great, and the author is generally available on the #git channel as are many other active users of the software.
- nuclear_eclipse 15y agoGitolite is a fork of Gitosis that has been both improved and actively maintained. It even has a script to automate converting your old gitosis.conf to the new format.
