Fetching changes

This plugin supports 2 ways of fetching changes, via cronjob or via hooks. You can use only one or both of them together.

Cronjob

Run ./bin/rails runner "Repository::GitMirror.fetch", for example:

5,20,35,50 * * * * cd /usr/src/redmine && ./bin/rails runner "Repository::GitMirror.fetch"  -e production >> log/cron_rake.log 2>&1

Hooks

Hooks is preferred way because you can immediately see changes of you repository.

GitLab hooks

You can setup per-project or system wide hook, for both variants use redmine.site/sys/git_mirror/gitlab as URL

For system wide setup

Go to gitlab.site/admin/hooks, and select only Repository update events trigger.

For per-project setup

Go to gitlab.site/user/project/settings/integrations, and select only Push and Tags events

GitHub hooks

You can setup per-project or group wide hook, for both variants use redmine.site/sys/git_mirror/github as Payload URL and Just the push event option.

Don't worry about Content type both application/json and application/x-www-form-urlencoded are supported.
