## Upgrading Gitblit WAR (1.7.0+)

The default `gitblit.properties` file has been split into two files: `gitblit.properties`, which is the recommended file for setting your configuration, and `defaults.properties` which are Gitblit's default settings.

|
|

# Include Gitblit's 'defaults.properties' within your configuration.

include = defaults.properties

Notice that the default settings are *included* by your `gitblit.properties` file. The disadvantage to this approach is you must flip between discovering/reading the settings in `defaults.properties` and setting them in `gitblit.properties`, but there are some clear advantages too. This setup is not required. You may continue to keep all your settings in `gitblit.properties` like before.

Additionally you may find it useful if you are maintaining several Gitblit instances to share common properties files.

The *baseFolder* context parameter has been replaced with a *baseFolder* JNDI env-entry. This means you can define the *baseFolder* from the administrative console of your servlet container and not have to manipulate anything in the web.xml file.

1. Make sure your `WEB-INF/web.xml` *baseFolder* context parameter is not `${contextFolder}/WEB-INF/data`!

If it is, move your `WEB-INF/data` folder to a location writeable by your servlet container.

2. Deploy new WAR
|
|
23 |
3. Edit the new WAR's `WEB-INF/web.xml` file and set the *baseFolder* context parameter to your external baseFolder.
|
|
24 |
4. Review and optionally apply any new settings as indicated in the [release log](releases.html) to `${baseFolder}/gitblit.properties`.

## Upgrading Gitblit WAR (pre-1.2.1)
|
|
27 |
|
|
28 |
1. Create a `data` as outlined in step 1 of *Upgrading Gitblit GO (pre-1.2.1)*
|
|
29 |
2. Copy your existing web.xml to your data folder
|
|
30 |
3. Deploy new WAR
|
|
31 |
4. Copy the new WAR's `WEB-INF/data/gitblit.properties` file to your data folder
|
|
32 |
5. Manually apply any changes you made to your original web.xml file to the gitblit.properties file you copied to your data folder
|
|
33 |
6. Edit the new WAR's `WEB-INF/web.xml` file and set the *baseFolder* context parameter to your external baseFolder.
