With 1.3.2 on Linux, I just want kick the tires of GitBlit.
I thought I have configured it to just use http, by setting server.httpsPort to 0.
But when I start it up, I get:

INFO  Running on Linux (2.6.18-238.9.1.el5)

Can't figure out where I should configure a password or turn of https certs all together.

Hmm. There are a couple relevant settings. Easiest thing to do is to
start fresh and let it go though the first-time initialization stuff
for https. Then disable https afterwards or just don't connect https.
