git-csi-driver

git-csi-driver mounts a git repository as a Kubernetes volume on a liken cluster. The pod sees a plain directory. A read-only volume follows its branch or tag as it moves. On a writeable volume, the driver commits what the application writes and pushes it to the repository.

It fits two kinds of use:

• Data that a repository already holds, such as a tree of YAML, a set of templates, or a static site. Any pod in any namespace can mount it as an inline volume, or through a ReadOnlyMany claim, and the driver keeps it current.
• Application configuration. Many self-hosted applications keep their configuration as text files in one directory and edit it from their own user interface. On this driver that directory is a repository, so every change has history. A new claim on the same repository starts from the last configuration that the driver pushed, so you can restore it.

Start here:

• Install the driver .
• Mount a repository read-only .
• Give an application a repository to write .
• Give many applications one repository , one directory each.

The driver defines no custom resources. A PersistentVolume names the repository, a VolumeAttributesClass sets when the driver commits and pushes, and a PersistentVolumeClaim binds the two. A read-only volume needs no class, and an inline one needs only the csi block in the pod spec.

git-csi-driver is one of the extension operators for mounting storage .
