Okay, let's get right into it.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The gitea stuff is located at `/var/lib/gitea`.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The gitea config file is located at `/etc/gitea/app.ini`.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The `gitea.service` file is located at `/etc/systemd/system/gitea.service` and
|
||
|
|
contains:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```ini
|
||

|

Create a backup first (or after renamed the executable file `gitea` to
|
||
|
|
`gitea.back`):
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```console
|
||
|
|
# sudo -u git ./gitea.back dump -c /etc/gitea/app.ini
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
That creates a file
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```console
|
||
|
|
# ll gitea-dump*
|
||
|
|
.rw-------. git git 835 MB Sun Mar 12 07:32:49 2023 gitea-dump-1678602739.zip
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Just for the record: I'll include a recovery routine here, which is basically
|
||
|
|
unzipping the dump file from above and moving the contained files to the right
|
||
|
|
directory.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```console
|
||
|
|
# unzip gitea-dump-1610949662.zip
|
||
|
|
# cd gitea-dump-1610949662
|
||
|
|
# mv data/conf/app.ini /etc/gitea/app.ini
|
||
|
|
# mv data/* /var/lib/gitea/data/
|
||
|
|
# mv log/* /var/lib/gitea/log/
|
||
|
|
# mv repos/* /var/lib/gitea/repositories/
|
||
|
|
# chown -R gitea:gitea /etc/gitea/conf/app.ini /var/lib/gitea
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
# mysql --default-character-set=utf8mb4 -u$USER -p$PASS $DATABASE <gitea-db.sql
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
# systemctl restart gitea
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Have a look at
|
||
|
|
<https://docs.gitea.io/en-us/backup-and-restore/#restore-command-restore> for a
|
||
|
|
full and/or actual version of the recovery process.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Download the new binary file from <https://dl.gitea.com/gitea/>.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
I usually download to my root's home folder.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```console
|
||
|
|
# wget https://dl.gitea.com/gitea/1.18.5/gitea-1.18.5-linux-amd64
|
||
|
|
# cd /var/lib/gitea
|
||
|
|
# cp gitea gitea.back
|
||
|
|
# mv ~/gitea-1.18.5-linux-amd64 gitea
|
||
|
|
# systemctl restart gitea
|
||
|
|
```

That's it. I won't need this again but I like to keep this information
|
||
|
|
somewhere I can find it ;-)
