  • Do not distribute anything on fedorapeople.org that Fedora itself cannot distribute for legal reasons. Nothing on the ForbiddenItems list or otherwise non distributable by Fedora.
  • Do not upload your private .ssh keys. While Fedora IT works hard on keeping the servers secure, break ins will happen and private keys uploaded can be downloaded and brute-forced easily these days. Private .ssh keys if found during an audit will be deleted.

Accessing Your fedorapeople.org Space

  1. You need an active Fedora account
  2. You must be sponsored in a group (other than the CLA groups)
  3. You need to generate a ssh key (ssh-keygen -t rsa).
  4. Upload that ssh key into your Fedora account. To upload, visit this link and select your key file using the Public RSA SSH key field. Normally your key is stored in your home directory under .ssh/id_rsa.pub. The ssh key gets activated an hour after you upload it.
  5. To connect, use the ssh key you uploaded into your Fedora account:
    ssh -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa <your_fedora_id>@fedorapeople.org

This step can also be done via Fedora account.

  1. While logged in, click on "My Account" on the side bar.
  2. Select "edit" link next to "Account Details."
  3. Type the following in the "Public RSA SSH Key:" field:
    ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
  4. Click the "Save!" button.
  5. Verify your success. You will see "ssh-rsa" followed by alpha numeric string in "Public SSH Key:" field of your Account Details.

Common Answers

  • Each Fedora contributor has 2000000 KiB (approximately 1954 MiB) of quota-controlled space.
  • If you run out of space you should: clean up stuff you don't need. If you cannot clean up anything then you should contact fedora infrastructure to raise your quota.
  • To make a publicly viewable space, create a public_html directory.
  • Fedora people is NOT to be used for development or creating repositories on. Repositories will need to be created elsewhere and uploaded via scp or rsync.
  • DO NOT try to use sudo to install packages you "need." Unless you are in the Infrastructure group, and have gotten approval from sysadmin-main, extra packages are not to be installed on fedorapeople.
  • Upload files using scp, sftp, or rsync.
Using Nautilus
If you use GNOME, visit this page for an easy way to connect to your fedorapeople.org space.
Using Dolphin or Konqueror
If you use KDE, type sftp://your_username@fedorapeople.org in your file manager address bar for an easy way to connect to your fedorapeople.org space.
Using Thunar
If you use XFCE, type ctrl+l to bring up the Open Location Dialogue and then enter sftp://your_username@fedorapeople.org/home/fedora/your_username in Location field for an easy way to connect to your fedorapeople.org space. PCManFM also works

To copy files from the command line, you can use scp

scp /path/to/file your_fedora_username@fedorapeople.org:/home/fedora/your_fedora_username/public_html


  • Once uploaded into the users public_html directory the files are available via http at: http://your_username.fedorapeople.org/.
  • Give other users access to read/write/etc files by using extended acls. Read man pages for setfacl and getfacl for adding them to your dirs/files. This gives the user jkeating read and write access to file:
setfacl -m u:jkeating:rw file

fedora people git hosting support

fedorapeople.org now has support for hosting git repositories including accessing them via the git:// protocol for anonymous downloads as well as providing the cgit web interface.

Here is a quick rundown of how to get started using git on fedorapeople.org. It assumes that you are already somewhat familiar with git. You might want to take a look at the Git quick reference.

Create a ~/public_git directory on fedorapeople.org

ssh your_fedora_username@fedorapeople.org "mkdir ~/public_git; /sbin/restorecon -Rv ~/public_git"

Creating a new git repository in ~/public_git

As an example, here is one method to create an empty repository on your local system and upload it:

git init --bare repo.git
scp -r repo.git/ your_fedora_username@fedorapeople.org:~/public_git/

This creates a bare repository (i.e. a repository that has no working directory). It contains just the files that are part of the .git directory of a non-bare git repository (the kind most users are accustomed to seeing).

Repository name must end with .git
cgit will not list repos that do not end in .git.

Additionally if you wish your repository to show up in the cgit web interface, you must:

touch ~/public_git/yourgitrepo.git/git-daemon-export-ok

For any repositories you wish to appear there by default.

Uploading an existing repository to ~/public_git

If you have an existing repository you want to use on fedorapeople, you can do so easily:

git clone --bare /path/to/local/repo repo.git
scp -r repo.git/ your_fedora_username@fedorapeople.org:public_git/

The caveats from the previous section apply here as well.

Pushing to your repository

To push changes from a local repository:

cd /path/to/local/repo
git remote add fedorapeople your_fedora_username@fedorapeople.org:public_git/repo.git
git push --mirror fedorapeople

This creates a mirror of your local repository. All of the branches and tags in the local repository will be pushed to the fedorapeople repository.

If you only want to push selected branches, amend the git push example. For example, to push only your local master branch:

git push fedorapeople master


Allowing others to push
You can allow other fedorapeople.org users to push to your repository using extended acls (see setfacl(1) for details). However, if you have many others working on your project, using Fedora Hosted is strongly preferred.


Cloning your repository

To clone your repository, use a command similar to:

git clone git://fedorapeople.org/~your_fedora_username/repo.git


It is also possible to clone your project via the http:// protocol. In order for this to work, you must arrange to have git-update-server-info run whenever you update your repository. Typically, this is done with a post-update hook script. However, the user home directories on fedorapeople.org are mounted with the noexec option, which prevents the script from running. Instead, you may create a symbolic link to git-update-server-info in the hooks directory of your repository:

ssh your_fedora_username@fedorapeople.org
cd ~/public_git/repo.git/hooks
ln -svbf $(git --exec-path)/git-update-server-info post-update
git update-server-info


You also need to create a link from ~/public_html/git to ~/public_git:

cd ~/public_html
ln -svbf ../public_git git


You can clone your repository over http:// with a command similar to:

git clone http://your_fedora_username.fedorapeople.org/git/repo.git/


git:// versus http://
Only clone via http:// if you are behind a firewall that prevents git:// from working. The git:// protocol is faster and more efficient than the http:// protocol for git usage.

Browsing your project via cgit

You can see your project listed in cgit once the project list updates. This happens hourly.


Repository description
You can set the description for the repository that is displayed in cgit by editing the description file in your repository.

Shared repository

If you want to give access to your repository to other users you can do this with ACLs.

 setfacl -R -m u:<user>:rwX <repo.git>
 find <repo.git> -type d | xargs setfacl -R -m d:u:<user>:rwX
