Is it possible to set a Gitlab Repo to host packages?

Good day,

Would it be possible to host a repo for Haiku on Gitlab? I plan to do some testing and would like to set a Gitlab project as repo to host the packages.

Any hints on the topic would be much appreciated. Thanks.

You can mirror github repository:

But to host packages, I suggest using a dedicated server, not gitlab!

Good day,

@marcoapc, yes, you are right. Best way is to host own repo… besides, there is already a script to set up the repo for hosting haiku packages. Nonetheless… I was thinking that I could do the same as with Arch, where I just create a couple of files and ´voila´ there is the repo (namely the packages database files), directly from pacman, then just need to add it to pacman.conf.

I guess there is nothing similar on Haiku. :thinking:

Thanks @marcoapc
