GitLab CE
Self-hosted Git repository management, CI/CD, and DevOps platform — the open-source core of GitLab.com.
Esta guía se elaboró a partir de la documentación oficial de GitLab CE, enlazada arriba — verifica siempre ahí los nombres exactos de paquetes/versiones antes de ejecutar estos comandos en un servidor de producción, ya que las versiones de la distribución y del proyecto cambian con el tiempo.
1Install prerequisites
sudo apt updatesudo apt install -y curl openssh-server ca-certificates tzdata perl2Add the official GitLab repository
curl https://packages.gitlab.com/install/repositories/gitlab/gitlab-ce/script.deb.sh | sudo bashPiping a script from curl straight into bash is exactly what GitLab's own docs recommend for this step — still worth reading the script at that URL first if you want to verify it yourself before running it as root.
3Install GitLab, pointing it at your real URL
Replace the URL with your server's real hostname — GitLab bakes this into its config during install and changing it later needs a manual reconfigure.
sudo EXTERNAL_URL="http://gitlab.example.com" apt install gitlab-ce4Get the initial root password
sudo cat /etc/gitlab/initial_root_passwordThis file is automatically deleted 24 hours after install — save the password somewhere safe before then.
5Log in
Open your configured URL and log in as root with the password above. Change it immediately.
