Installation

Git Web Manager

System requirements and recommended hosting setup.

repository wallaby
Quick Start Configuration

Requirements

  • PHP 8.2+ with required extensions.
  • Composer 2.
  • Node.js 18+ (20/22/24 recommended) for Vite builds.
  • Git CLI accessible to the web user.
  • PHP-FPM pool runs as the same user who owns the deployment paths.
  • Queue worker for webhook deploys.

Recommended Layout

Install GWM on the same host where your websites live so it can deploy directly to local paths. If a path does not exist, GWM can create it.

Queue Worker

Webhook-driven deploys and background tasks use the queue system:

php artisan queue:work

Git Web Manager is built on Laravel, so queue commands use artisan. If you run GWM under a custom PHP binary, prefix the command with your PHP path.
