Using GIT Smart HTTP via IIS

Question

I recently read Scott Chacon's post "Smart HTTP Transport", and I was hoping that it might have become possible via IIS (windows 7) since that post was written. I haven't been able to find anything showing how it can be done, and Apache is not an option in my IIS 7 based environment. So, I'm at a loss (git daemon was foiled for me by a combination of AVG anti-virus and AD).

I want to provide LDAP authenticated read/write access for selected users. So this question seems not to be relevant.

Do you know of a way to provide access to GIT via IIS?

Alternatively ... (non-IIS)

Gitea (fork of Gogs): https://gitea.io

Gogs: https://gogs.io

SCM Manager allows you to easily setup Git, Hg, and SVN servers over HTTP/HTTPS under a separate Java process and complete with built in authentication.

Answer 2

You might be able to do this with the Rack support in IronRuby (http://github.com/jschementi/ironruby/tree/master/Merlin/Main/Hosts/IronRuby.Rack) and the Git http server rack app (http://github.com/schacon/grack). You need at least Git 1.6.6, possibly 1.7.0 for this to work - I'm not sure that it will, but it might. If you're running any Java app servers, you can compile Grack into a WAR, too, if that's an option.

Answer 3

I just created a project. It has an ASP.NET HttpHandler that follows what Grack does. Welcome to try it out.
