Finally got around to switching my GitLab site over to HTTPS — made an ssl folder in \/etc\/gitlab and then placed the public\/private key pair in that folder. Files named with the external URL hostname with a key and crt suffix (gitlab.rushworth.us.crt and gitlab.rushworth.us.key in my case). Then in gitlab.rb, I changed the external_url to an https:\/\/ prefix. Voila, a secure GitLab server.<\/p>\n
Oops – forgot about the client. Adding the secure site as the remote, I get\u00a0“unable to get local issuer certificate” on the git client. Since I used a CA signed certificate, I just had to put the CA public key into git’s ca bundle. If you use a self-signed certificate, I believe the certificate public key would need to be used.<\/p>\n
Where is git’s CA bundle? Ask git:<\/p>\n
