Where is a Stash repository actually created?

[Daisuke Niwa]

Hi there,

I would like to know where Git repository created by Stash is actually located in the server.

I need to access to that repository within file system.

If anyone has an idea, please let me know.

Regards,

Daisuke Niwa

You can find this out by installing the repository system info plugin

Hi Daisuke,

The Git repositories can be found in the $STASH_HOME/data/repositories directory, where the folder name is the repository ID.

I hope you don't mind me asking, what did you have in mind exactly?

Obviously we don't recommend modifying the repositories, as it may adversely impact Stash if something goes wrong. We would generally suggest writing a plugin to perform certain operations (where possible). For example if you need to react to a merge, there is an event in Stash that you can listen for. In future versions of Stash we will allow you to write pre-receive hooks modules, rather than manually having to update the filesystem.

I hope this helps.
