I intended to install Gogs on my Odroid C2, but it is not listed in the available software list and I have found one post suggesting it might not be available for this specific board.
Is that so?
If so, why? and dhould I be able to install it in my own or the C2 is fundamentally incompatible with Gogs for some reason?
My interest in Gogs is that I am looking for the lightest Git alternative that I could find, and I´m under the impression that it is much lighter than Gitea.
Yes there were no ARMv8 binaries available until just the very last release: https://github.com/gogs/gogs/releases/ I’ll implement/enable it tomorrow for next release, you should be able to apply the changes manually then.
Alright!! I think I got it running already!! Thank you @MichaIng for the help
what I did, although probably not exactly what you had in mind, was to get the git version of dietpi-software and run it locally to install Gogs. Then I followed the instructions provided in DietPi’ s website
The only thing that I had to tweak was that the pass for the “gogs” user in mysql/mariadb was not set up as “dietpi” as the instructions state (*) . I went around this by changing the db user at the console and used the new “known” password for the web installer.
(*) Now that I think about it the pass was probably the “global” one that DietPi allows us to setup when configuring a fresh instance…hmmm, I should have thought that earlier …
Anyway, it is running now! Wohoo!
Now I just have to learn to use it so I can tell if I got it running properly too with this maneuvering
… but I got there not by searching the forum but by going from the home page at www. dietpi.com → Features → DietPi Software → Gogs → How do I use this software?
I’ll implement/enable it tomorrow for next release, you should be able to apply the changes manually then.
