Bananajour is local git repository hosting with a sexy web interface and Bonjour discovery. It's like a bunch of adhoc, local, network-aware githubs!

Unlike Gitjour, the repositories you're serving are not your working git repositories, they're served from ~/.bananajour/repositories. You can push to your bananajour repositories from your working copies just like you do with github.

Follow @bananajour on twitter for all release updates.

You'll need at least git version 1.6. Run git --version if you're unsure.

Install it from gemcutter via gems:

gem install bananajour

(you might need to do a gem sources -a http://gemcutter.org beforehand!)

Start it up:

bananajour

Go into an existing project and add it to bananajour:

cd ~/code/myproj
bananajour add

Publish your codez:

git push banana master

Fire up http://localhost:9331/ to check it out.

If somebody starts sharing a Bananajour repository with the same name on the network it'll automatically show up in the network thanks to the wonder that is Bonjour.

For a list of all the commands:

To install the dnssd gem on linux you'll need avahi. For Ubunutu peeps this means:

sudo apt-get install libavahi-compat-libdnssd-dev

On Linux, if you kill bananajour with kill -9 it doesn't get a chance to unregister the Bonjour services, and when it is restarted it will die with DNSSD::AlreadyRegisteredError. Although not ideal, you can work around this my restarting avahi-daemon first.

Rumour has it ginatra can be used to provide richer gitweb-like browsing of your bananajour repositories. Symlink ginatra's repos directory to ~/.bananajour/repositories to serve up your bananajour repositories.

The official repo and support issues/tickets live at github.com/toolmantim/bananajour.

If you want to hack on the sinatra app then do so from a local clone but run your actual bananjour from the gem version. Running the sinatra app directly won't broadcast it onto the network and it'll run on a different port:

ruby sinatra/app.rb -s thin

If you want code reloading use shotgun instead:

shotgun sinatra/app.rb -s thin

If you then want to run your working copy as your public bananajour rebuild and install it as a gem:

sudo rake gem:install
