Today, we released a new version of Scala based Git platform GitBucket 1.10.

This release contains some new features as below:

• Rename repository
• Transfer repository owner
• Change default data directory to HOME/.gitbucket from HOME/gitbucket, but if data directory already exist at HOME/gitbucket, it continues being used.
• Add LDAP display name attribute
• Response performance improvement

Running GitBucket is very easy:

1. Download gitbucket.war from here and hit java -jar gitbucket.war in console
2. Access http://localhost:8080/ by your browser

And also some bugs are fixed in this release. Please upgrade your GitBucket, it’s also very easy. You have to only replace gitbucket.war.

Enjoy!
