"Git" user is hardcoded in some places, most notably in database init
Created by: Annakan
I installed GitLab under a gitlab user (seemed appropriate somehow), because I like to understand what is happening rather than cut paste and prey.
I noticed that the "git' user is hardcoded in several places mostly in the database init like a grep -R "/home/git" . shows.
This is bad because one of the parameters is the path of the directory holding the repositories and there is no way from the interface to correct that parameter.
I had to hack the init code and rebuild the database.
On the other hand, I am very close to have a FreeBSD install notes/faq ready, is that of some interest to the project or are you determined to only support Debian/CentOS
