As a refreshing change from the security-related versions of Gitorious over the last weeks, we’re glad to announce that version 2.4.10 of Gitorious was just released. This release contains fixes several bugs in Gitorious, among these:
- Fix broken pushes with sync messaging adapter
- Fix layout for global system message
- Fix mass-assignment related bugs
- Include repositories in Project XML output
- Fix broken User avatar upload
- Finally fix the double merge request versions
- Make bin/bundle work when bundle needs update(s)
Furthermore, you may place global git hooks on a location specified in gitorious.yml.
The steps for upgrading are, as usual:
- git fetch origin
- git merge v2.4.10
- git submodule update
- bundle install
- touch tmp/restart.txt (assuming you’re using Passenger. For non-Passenger deployments, restart your application server like you normally do)
Happy upgrades!

Will GetGitorious need to get updated because Gitorious was updated?
The reason I ask is because I’m getting an “installation failed” when attempting to install on a fresh 6.3 Centos x64 machine. I tried on a VirtualBox and a VMware machine. Cheers mate!
Yes, the installer should be updated shortly.
I am wondering as well, will GetGitorious need to get updated?
Hi there,
the installer and prebuilt VM at getgitorious.com is currently on 2.4.9 but will be updated in the near future.
