Updates for Installation documentation #765

Open sseide opened 4 years ago

sseide commented 4 years ago

Hello - thanks for this helpful plugin but here are some remaks to improve the docs a bit: I did a fresh installation for a test system and these steps where missing or not that clear from your current "get started" docs (http://redmine-git-hosting.io/get_started/)

Step 1) needed to install following packages too, otherwise later on the build of "rugged with native extension" will fail:

Here another sentence as a remark would probably be nice "Working with redmine_git_hosting plugin needs a running Gitolite3 installation. If you do not have one just check step 7 for basic installation instructions." Its just a matter of order. Gitolite is a prerequisite, therefor should be mentioned at step 1 at least.

Step 2) Current versions does not need "redmine_bootstrap_kit" any more. Should get a remark along "only needed for redmine_git_hosting < 4.0" or similiar

Thanks, Stefan Seide

as said inside #766: add hint to disable "git" after all repositories have move to new "Xitolite"/"Gitolite" backend inside step 9 from "Get Started" installation documentation

Also upgrade documentation is a bit buggy: http://redmine-git-hosting.io/how-to/upgrade/
