Monero Observer self-hosted CLI Git server deployed

Monero Observer’s self-hosted terminal-based Git server has been deployed and is now accepting SSH connections to git.monero.observer at port 23231.

The server hosts the open-source website code and content for the project. Read the licenses¹ section for more info.

Requirements

(1) To access the server (TUI) and browse the repository

• a terminal
• a SSH key pair (preferably Ed25519 or SHA-1 RSA)

(2) To download the repository

• (1) & git

Commands

• To generate a Ed25519 SSH key pair run:

ssh-keygen -o -a 75 -t ed25519

• To access the TUI run:

ssh git.monero.observer -p 23231

• To clone the repository run:

git clone ssh://git.monero.observer:23231/src

That should cover the basics.

Thanks to git, ssh key pairs and soft-serve², there is no need to touch browsers, MS Github or other proprietary/bloated platforms. Always remember that GitHub, GitLab et al != Git.

More guides on how to use git, ssh, terminals and email to collaborate cypherpunk-style will be available soon on Monero Observer.

Your questions, feedback and suggestions are always welcome @ /about.

Update 23/4/17: the website source (code/content) is now available for download directly from the About page as a tarball¹; thanks @plowsof for the feedback.

Update 23/5/31: server stopped, effectively replaced by the tarball d/l.
