Features
--------
The current version of GitBucket provides many features such as:

- Public / Private Git repositories (with http/https and ssh access)
- GitLFS support
- Repository viewer including an online file editor
- Issues, Pull Requests and Wiki for repositories
- Activity timeline and email notifications
- Account and group management with LDAP integration
- a Plug-in system

Installation
--------
GitBucket requires **Java 17**. You have to install it, if it is not already installed.

1. Download the latest **gitbucket.war** from [the releases page](https://github.com/gitbucket/gitbucket/releases) and run it by `java -jar gitbucket.war`.
2. Go to `http://[hostname]:8080/` and log in with ID: **root** / Pass: **root**.

You can also deploy `gitbucket.war` to a servlet container which supports Servlet 3.0 (like Jetty, Tomcat, JBoss, etc). Note that GitBucket doesn't support Jakarta EE yet.

For more information about installation on Mac or Windows Server (with IIS), or configuration of Apache or Nginx and also integration with other tools or services such as Jenkins or Slack, see [Wiki](https://github.com/gitbucket/gitbucket/wiki).

To upgrade GitBucket, replace `gitbucket.war` with the new version, after stopping GitBucket. All GitBucket data is stored in `HOME/.gitbucket` by default. So if you want to back up GitBucket's data, copy this directory to the backup location.

Plugins
--------
GitBucket has a plug-in system that allows extra functionality. Officially the following plug-ins are provided:

- [gitbucket-gist-plugin](https://github.com/gitbucket/gitbucket-gist-plugin)
- [gitbucket-emoji-plugin](https://github.com/gitbucket/gitbucket-emoji-plugin)
- [gitbucket-pages-plugin](https://github.com/gitbucket/gitbucket-pages-plugin)
- [gitbucket-notifications-plugin](https://github.com/gitbucket/gitbucket-notifications-plugin)

You can find more plugins made by the community at [GitBucket community plugins](https://github.com/gitbucket/gitbucket/wiki/Community-Plugins).

Building and Development
-----------
If you want to try the development version of GitBucket, or want to contribute to the project, please see the [Developer's Guide](https://github.com/gitbucket/gitbucket/blob/master/doc/readme.md).
It provides instructions on building from source and on setting up an IDE for debugging. 
It also contains documentation of the core concepts used within the project.

Support
--------

- If you have any questions about GitBucket, see [Wiki](https://github.com/gitbucket/gitbucket/wiki) and check issues whether there is a same question or request in the past.
- If you can't find same question and report, send it to our [Gitter chat room](https://gitter.im/gitbucket/gitbucket) before raising an issue.
- The highest priority of GitBucket is the ease of installation and API compatibility with GitHub, so your feature request might be rejected if they go against those principles.

What's New in 4.47.x
-------------
### 4.47.0 - 9 Aug 2026
- Add more security options for creating repositories by cloning
- Make the reset password token expiration period configurable
- Improve GitHub API compatibility for repository IDs, fork management
- Fix issue assignees not being preserved when a repository is renamed or transferred
- Improvements and bug fixes for markdown format actions in the text editor

**Note 1:** This release includes a large database migration affecting core tables such as `REPOSITORY` and `ACCOUNT`. We strongly recommend backing up your database before upgrading to GitBucket 4.47.0.

**Note 2:** You have to migrate h2 database file if you will upgrade GitBucket from 4.42 or before to 4.43 or later and you are using the default h2 database because h2 1.x and h2.x don't have compatibility: https://www.h2database.com/html/migration-to-v2.html

It can't be done automatically using GitBucket's auto migration mechanism because it relies on database itself. So, users who use h2 will have to dump and recreate their database manually with the following steps:
```bash
# Export database using the current version of H2
$ curl -O https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/com/h2database/h2/1.4.199/h2-1.4.199.jar
$ java -cp h2-1.4.199.jar org.h2.tools.Script -url "jdbc:h2:~/.gitbucket/data" -user sa -password sa -script dump.sql

# Recreate database using the new version of H2
$ curl -O https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/com/h2database/h2/2.3.232/h2-2.3.232.jar
$ java -cp h2-2.3.232.jar org.h2.tools.RunScript -url "jdbc:h2:~/.gitbucket/data" -user sa -password sa -script dump.sql
```

In addition, if `~/.gitbucket/database.conf` has the following configuration, remove `;MVCC=true` from `url`.
```
db {
  url = "jdbc:h2:${DatabaseHome};MVCC=true" // => "jdbc:h2:${DatabaseHome}"
  ...
}
```

See the [change log](CHANGELOG.md) for all the past updates.
