The Bonobo git server installation page instructions don’t fully match the process I had to use to install it, so I’ve documented the process here.

I will show you the steps to install a local Git server on Windows 10.

Install Steps for Git Server

The Git Server used is Bonobo Git Server, which runs on IIS on Windows.

Pre-requisites:

  1. Use Turn Windows Features On and Off to install
  2. Internet Information Services > Web Management Tools > IIS Management Console
  3. Internet Information Services > World Wide Web Services > Application Development Features > ASP .Net 4.7
  4. Internet Information Services > World Wide Web Services > Common HTTP Features > Static Content

Install:

  1. Download the zip file
  2. Unarchive the zip file
  3. Copy the contents of the zip file folder to “c:\inetpub\wwwroot”
  4. Change the security properties of the app_data folder to allow modify access to the IIS user
  5. Check anonymous authentication is enabled
  6. Visit Http://localhost/bonobo.git.server
  7. Create a user
  8. Amend settings to “allow user repository creation” and “allow push to create repositories”
  9. Create a repo
  10. Push repo to your server

Useful Git and Shell Commands Used

git status
vi readme.md
git init
git status
git add -A
git commit -m "my first commit"
git status
git remote add origin http://servernameorip/Bonobo.Git.Server/test.git
git push -u origin master
