Purpose of this plugin is to use Gitblit as web-based viewer (i.e. GitWeb replacement) on top of Gerrit Code Review.
As pre-requisites you need to make a custom-build of Gitblit and Wicket: the standard JARs downloaded from a public Maven repository aren't enough as they are missing some specific build parameters and constraints (i.e. shaded-jar) that are needed for a Gerrit plugin to work properly.
You need to clone Gitblit from GitHub and build it locally using the installMaven ANT target.
$ git clone https://github.com/gitblit/gitblit.git $ git checkout develop $ ant -DresourceFolderPrefix=static installMaven
You are ready now to clone and build the Gitblit plugin: the Wicket and Giblit dependencies will be taken from your local Maven repository.
$ mvn package
In order to use GitBlit as GitWeb replacement, please apply the following configuration to your Gerrit config.
