Use gitlist as git repository browser in Jenkins
Jenkins git-scm plugin provides support for various git repo browser applications, but the wonderful gitlist isn’t one of them… Still I found you can fool Jenkins into using gitlist as your repository browser. (We’ve been using gitlist on one of the ALM environments I manage and gitLab on another one. At some stage I noticed that gitLab‘s commit url is build exactly the same as a commit url in gitlist : <gitlist_url>/<repo-name>.git/commit/<commit_hash> vs. <gitlab_url>/<repo_name(without .git extension)>/commit/<commit_hash>. Actually what jenkins git plugin does when constructing the repository browser link for gitlab is add the ‘commit/<commit_hash>’ on top of gitlab project url. And it works perfectly fine for gitlist too!)
