Advanced Git installation

This page covers installing Multi-tenancy via Git. This is intended for administrators comfortable with the command line, Git, and web server configuration. For new sites on Moodle 5.1.x, the Composer seed is recommended instead.

Installation via Git

The branch names and plugin paths depend on Moodle version:

Moodle version	Moodle branch	Patch branch	tool_mutenancy	tool_mulib
4.5.x	MOODLE_405_STABLE	patch/mutenancy/MOODLE_405_STABLE	MOODLE_405_STABLE → admin/tool/mutenancy	MOODLE_405_STABLE → admin/tool/mulib
5.0.x	MOODLE_500_STABLE	patch/mutenancy/MOODLE_500_STABLE	MOODLE_500_STABLE → admin/tool/mutenancy	MOODLE_500_STABLE → admin/tool/mulib
5.1.x	MOODLE_501_STABLE	patch/mutenancy/MOODLE_501_STABLE	MOODLE_501_STABLE → public/admin/tool/mutenancy	MOODLE_500_STABLE → public/admin/tool/mulib

Note that there might be git merge conflicts if you merge the multi-tenancy patch into unreleased upstream MOODLE_XXX_STABLE branches. If that happens you may try the patch/mutenancy/MOODLE_XXX_STABLE_NEXT branch instead.
