[PATCH] gitweb: optionally read config from GITWEB_CONFIG

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Configuration will first be taken from variables inside the gitweb.cgi
script, which in turn come from the Makefile. Afterwards, the contents of
GITWEB_CONFIG are read, overriding the builtin defaults.

This should eliminate the need for editing the gitweb script at all. Users
should edit the Makefile and/or add a config file.

This is on top of next.

This patch seemed to get a favorable response, so I cleaned it up and
actually tested it. The main changes are reordering a few of the setup
statements so that changes introduced in the config file are respected
as suggested by Matthias (and a few by me). It would be good if other
gitweb people could check it over and/or try it with their config to
make sure I didn't miss anything.
