There are several ways to clone a repository from github. Similar from other providers, such as bitbucket, gitlab, etc.

Mostly, we use

• http
• ssh

Sample clone commands:

Setting Up Git with Nginx for Anonymous HTTP Access

This guide explains how to configure a Git repository to be served anonymously over HTTP using Nginx and git-http-backend. This setup allows users to clone and fetch repositories without authentication, and optionally push if configured. It’s ideal for public repositories or simple internal use cases.

Prerequisites

• A Linux server with:
  • Git installed (sudo apt install git)
  • Nginx installed (sudo apt install nginx)
  • fcgiwrap installed (sudo apt install fcgiwrap) to bridge Nginx and git-http-backend

Server Configuration in git

With git you can have anything versioned. You're used to version your code, which is a bunch of files. Your server configuration (on Linux) is also just a bunch of files, so it can be versioned as well.

The idea is simple: create a git repository in /etc/ and commit everytime you change any configuration of your server. Written in code:

cd /etc
git init
git add .

I don't expect moby/moby#24170 to be solved by Docker team on near future so this gist is about looking for least ugly workarounds which are available today and on near future.

What is possible on Docker 19.03

Network

It is possible to create overlay network with use user specified subnet. On this example I create network which is size is two C -class networks ( IP range 10.0.0.0 - 10.0.1.255 ) and force Docker to use IPs from second part of it ( 10.0.1.0 - 10.0.1.255 ).

That way I can make sure that IPs 10.0.0.2 - 10.0.0.254 can be specified to containers and they do not collide with IPs which Docker engine assign for service(s)/container(s).

Using a Local Registry with Minikube

Install a local Registry

These instructions include running a local registry accessible from Kubernetes as well as from the host development machine at registry.dev.svc.cluster.local:5000.

1. Use the docker CLI to run the registry:2 container from Docker, listening on port 5000, and persisting images in the ~/.registry/storage directory.

A Bash script for Debian/Ubuntu-based systems that will install Docker (if not already installed) and configure it to use a specified directory (presumably on your mounted external drive) for storing containers, images, volumes, etc.

Important Considerations BEFORE Running:

1. External Drive MUST be Mounted: This script assumes your external drive is already mounted before you run the script. It does not handle mounting the drive itself.
2. Persistent Mount: For Docker to start correctly after a reboot, the external drive must be mounted persistently (e.g., via an entry in /etc/fstab) at the same path every time.
3. Backup: If you have existing Docker data in /var/lib/docker and it's important, BACK IT UP before running this script. The script attempts to move existing data, but failures can happen.
4. Root Privileges: You need to run this script with sudo.
5. Distribution: This script is tailored for Debian/Ubuntu. The package manager (apt), repository s

Start a dev server

Serve a local directory of static assets - using one-line solutions and no scripts

The first solution uses an IDE extension, while the rest involve using the command-line (intended for macOS and Linux, but they will hopefully work on Windows too).
