**The project is designed for the Linux operating system.**
|
We recommend you to run GitLab on a server with at least 1GB RAM.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
It may work on FreeBSD and Mac OS, but we don't test our application for these systems and can't guarantee stability and full functionality.
|
The necessary hard disk space largely depends on the size of the repos you want
|
||||||
|
to use GitLab with. But as a *rule of thumb* you should have at least as much
|
||||||
|
free space as your all repos combined take up.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
We officially support (recent versions of) these Linux distributions:

# Operating Systems
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Linux
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
GitLab is developed for the Linux operating system.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
GitLab officially supports (recent versions of) these Linux distributions:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Ubuntu Linux
|
- Ubuntu Linux
|
||||||
- Debian/GNU Linux
|
- Debian/GNU Linux
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
It should work on:
|
It should also work on (though they are not officially supported):
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Arch
|
||||||
|
- CentOS
|
||||||
- Fedora
|
- Fedora
|
||||||
- CentOs
|
- Gentoo
|
||||||
- RedHat
|
- RedHat
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
You might have some luck using these, but no guarantees:
|
## Other Unix Systems
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- FreeBSD will likely work, see https://github.com/gitlabhq/gitlabhq/issues/796
|
There is nothing that prevents GitLab from running on other Unix operating
|
||||||
- MacOS X will likely work, see https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/gitlabhq/5IXHbPkjKLA
|
systems. This means you may get it to work on systems running FreeBSD or OS X.
|
||||||
|
**If you want to try, please proceed with caution!**
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
GitLab does **not** run on Windows and we have no plans of making GitLab compatible.
|
## Windows
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
GitLab does **not** run on Windows and we have no plans of supporting it in the
|
||||||
|
near future.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Hardware:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
We recommend to use server with at least 1GB RAM for gitlab instance.
|
# Rubies
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
GitLab requires Ruby (MRI) 1.9.3 and several Gems with native components.
|
||||||
|
While it is generally possible to use other Rubies (like
|
||||||
|
[JRuby](http://jruby.org/) or [Rubinius](http://rubini.us/)) it might require
|
||||||
|
some work on your part.
|
||||||

# Installation troubles and reporting success or failure
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
If you have troubles installing GitLab following the official installation guide
|
||||||
|
or want to share your experience installing GitLab on a not officially supported
|
||||||
|
platform, please follow the the contribution guide (see CONTRIBUTING.md).
